Founded in 2022, the HETMA Prism Scholarship awards ten underrepresented higher ed audiovisual professionals annually the opportunity to learn, certify, and experience the AV industry through an AVIXA Elite membership, CTS training and certification, a personal mentor, and trip to InfoComm. Previous recipients have gone on to become leaders in both higher education and the AV-industry.
In order to continue supporting this revolutionary scholarship program, HETMA is introducing the 1st Annual HETMA Golf Classic, being held September 22, 2025 (with an opening Welcome Reception on September 21), at the world class PGA West Pete Dye Mountain Course in La Quinta CA. This is an event not to be missed. All sponsorships of the HETMA Golf Classic are 100% tax deductible as a 501(c)3 organization, and 100% of the tournament profits support the Prism Scholarship.
As an end user group, HETMA believes in supporting the entire channel line. So this year, we are putting a higher ed customer in our player carts! That's the perfect way to have fun, support a great cause, and also do some business all in one!
This year’s event includes: (1) Welcome reception the night before; (2) Morning putting contest, driving range, breakfast on-the-go; (3) Shotgun scramble with specialty games on the course, edu customers in your carts, taco cart lunch, alcoholic & non-alcoholic beverages; (4) Awards ceremony cocktail reception with raffle & silent auction, winners trophies; (5) Opportunity for customer dinners post-tournament.
