AudioGraph International is pleased to announce its recognition as an Official Authorized Training Center by Audinate/Dante in Santa Monica, California.

Santa Monica, CA — November 10, 2025 — AudioGraph International (AGI), with a long-standing history as an Official AVID Pro Tools Certification Center since 1993, proudly announces its official recognition as an Authorized Hands-On Training Partner by Audinate/Dante. This achievement underscores AGI’s commitment to providing 100 percent practical education in audio technology and immersive sound on a global scale.

“Training the ear, the mind, and the hands—because real audio education is hands-on.”

— Chilitos Valenzuela, Founder & Director, AudioGraph International

“I believe Audinate has done an excellent job certifying those who wish to work in this type of profession within the entertainment industry, but it needs to offer a more hands-on training experience,” said Chilitos Valenzuela, founder of AudioGraph International and a pioneer in professional audio education. “Since I began learning about the Dante platform, I’ve noticed that many people say, ‘I’m Dante Certified,’ but few dare to reach Level 3. At AGI, we take that step into real practice—our training ensures that students with at least a Dante Level 1 certification can put their knowledge into action.”

Setting a New Standard for Hands-On Dante Training in California

Audinate offers Dante Certifications Levels 1, 2, and 3 online, and now students with at least a Dante Level 1 certification can gain practical, real-world experience applying their knowledge and skills at AudioGraph International’s Dante-equipped facility in Santa Monica, California.

With decades of experience training professionals in audio post-production, music mixing, and networked audio systems, AudioGraph International (AGI) continues to lead the way by combining bilingual instruction (English and Spanish) in small groups of up to five students with the use of cutting-edge Dante equipment and fully hands-on projects.

This new partnership with Audinate expands AGI’s educational offerings to include the “Dante: One Connection, Endless Possibilities” program—a series of interactive, hands-on courses designed to help engineers, musicians, and technicians master the future of digital audio networking.

We invite the AudioGraph International community to stay tuned for upcoming announcements regarding hands-on Dante course dates in Santa Monica, CA..
