Receives Rare Industry Award

June 5, 2014 – Alameda, CA

Cabling Installation and Maintenance Magazine celebrates their 20 year anniversary and as part of this special occasion chose to identify 20 of the most influential people in the world that “Made a Significant, Positive Impact on the Cabling and Networking Industries.” Dave Sanders was one of the people honored in this arena along with Bob Kenny, Vice President of General Cable; Steve Jobs, Founder of Apple; Alexander Graham Bell; Robert Metcalf; and Charles KAO, Nobel Prize winner for Fiber Optics, just to name a few. Sanders humbly dedicates this award to his family, colleagues, students, mentors and BICSI.

Sanders went on to say, “The humility that comes with being honored with guys like Kenny, Jobs, Bell, Metcalf, and KAO is life changing to say the least. The Arrow organization continues to allow our mission to put ‘People First’ not projects. Our training programs here at Arrow, have helped hundreds achieve the Design credentials necessary to be successful in these competitive and challenging times.” As a popular Telecommunications Public Speaker of the Year, International RCDD Instructor of the Year, and as an Expert Witness in State and Federal Court for Communications Cabling cases, Dave indicates that this award is the most meaningful of all because of the history involved with all 20 Nominees on this special roster of historical people, “I am grateful to be a small part of this.” Patrick McLaughlin and his team over at Cabling Installation & Maintenance Magazine carry so much credibility, that this honor coming from them is serious and appreciated by the Industry. Between this magazine and BICSI, Sanders is most touched with the recognition. For more information, please call Toll Free 800-***-**** to speak to one of our dedicated Sales Professionals.

Dave Sanders

2004 International & Domestic RCDD Instructor of the Year February 11, 2005 – Bothell, WA – Dave Sanders,

Director of Sales for Leviton’s Voice & Data Division, was named 2004 International & Domestic RCDD Instructor of the Year. The award was presented by CET, a BICSI approved instructional facility, on January 22nd at the Orlando BICSI conference. This is the first time an RCDD trainer has ever been awarded both the international and domestic honors.

Dave has taught several hundred of the 7000 RCDDs in the world but perhaps his most significant accomplishment is his students’ success rate. Eighty percent of Dave’s students pass the RCDD exam after attending his class. With his average pass rate and one class from which every single test-taker passed, Dave is way ahead of the industry pass-rate average of 25%. Dave attributes his success to personal passion and Leviton support. As he puts it, “When I show up to teach a class I’m really showing up to make a difference in people’s lives. I want to help them achieve their dreams. The fact that they are Leviton customers - end-users, distributors, engineers, and contractors - and they collectively nominated me for this honor, that’s a dream for me.” Dave goes on to say, “Leviton has made it possible for me to help so many people. They have such a commitment to furthering education in the industry. I say that from my heart. It’s reality. I could not do this without the support I receive.”

Dave has been a CET instructor for over 3 years, and prior to that, designed and taught four networking classes for the University of California at Davis, where he is now an adjunct professor. He is one of only 97 people worldwide who hold the prestigious BICSI “Triple Crown”, all three RCDD, NTS (LAN) and OSP certifications, but he’s hoping more RCDDs will achieve the additional certifications. We’re betting he can help.
