SCESTA Member Benefits:

Board of Directors - The SCESTA Board of Directors works for you and is made up of 13 members of the association, which represent all aspects of the electronic systems industry. They meet several times a year, at their own expense, to discuss legislative and local issues that affect alarm dealers across the State of South Carolina. Board members are nominated and elected at the annual meeting in the fall of each year. All members are encouraged to step up and serve on our board of directors.

NTS Level I Course Options and Pricing - The SCESTA offers an in-person 22 hour NTS Level I course throughout the state several times a year. This course is required for burglar and fire alarm licensing in South Carolina. We offer the course at discounted rate ($350) for members.

The SCESTA has a lobby team that monitors bills which would influence the industry. Members of the SCESTA may view the current legislative updates online weekly during the legislative session. The management group, Capitol Consultants, also sends out procurement opportunities issued by the State of South Carolina.
