ESX 2026 brings together education, networking, and hands-on exposure to the latest technologies shaping the electronic security and life safety industry. From keynote sessions to the Expo floor and peer-led education, ESX is designed to deliver practical insights on topics like RMR growth, workforce challenges, emerging technologies, AI-driven monitoring, sales strategy, and operational efficiency.
One of the most valuable benefits for attendees is the opportunity to earn Continuing Education Credits (CEUs) while participating in this curated educational program.
Why CEUs Matter
CEU requirements vary by state and certification, but most technicians must earn continuing education credits to maintain their licenses and stay current with evolving technologies and industry standards.
For integrators and their teams, CEUs are not just about compliance. They are a direct investment in technician performance, operational efficiency, and long-term business growth. Staying current helps ensure systems are installed correctly, customers are better supported, and businesses remain competitive.
How Many CEUs Can You Earn at ESX?
Attendees can earn up to 8 hours of CEUs through verified session attendance.
