We have been an active member of the SCTC (Society of Communications Technology Consultants International) since 2015. Since SCTC’s founding in 1976, the members of (SCTC) are required to be independent and are restricted under the SCTC Code of Ethics from selling any product or service other than independent services. Every consultant member annually must sign and renew their membership, which reinforces our independence and those ethics. Highlighted below are of the most important:
