Here's What People Are Saying:

“The design engineers, ACS technicians and project leaders of MC Dean were impressed with [the] detailed approach to the standards development, verification, implementation, and troubleshooting of OSDP technology. The hands-on portion of the training was well received, and we walked away feeling better informed and able to impact and deliver customer projects.”

– Jeff Ferk, MC Dean

"The OSDP Boot Camp was great! It covered all the bases. It was a good intro and overview for some of our newer employees, and it provided our more experienced engineers a chance to dive right in and get into the protocol details and effective troubleshooting techniques."

Rick Focke, Director of Product Management, Enterprise Access Control, Johnson Controls
