Peachtree City, GA - The SOURCE, the industries' leading lighting educational facility, has released the 2007 calendar of classes for the lighting and design community. Located at the Cooper Lighting headquarters in Peachtree City, GA, the 35,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility is considered to be one the lighting industry's most complete, offering a wide variety of seminars designed to broaden the understanding of lighting and its applications. The SOURCE has been servicing the lighting industry for more than 15 years and to date, 86,000 lighting and interior designers, architects, utilities, facility managers, retail planners, electrical contractors, energy saving companies, engineers, distributors, builders, landscape architects, university students and end-users have benefited from The SOURCE experience.
This year, the SOURCE will be host and sponsor, along with the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA), the IESNA Teachers of Lighting Workshop in June. This workshop provides concentrated instruction in both design and technology of lighting to full-time and part-time academic faculty currently teaching that have responsibility for lighting education in design, architectural and engineering programs.
