Global Knowledge signs partnership to deliver Unique Managed
Services Education Program with Concept Sales
Oslo (Norway), Hilversum (The
Netherlands) – 19 July 2011 - Conceptsales and
Global Knowledge announced today a partnership to deliver the
Managed Services Partner Enablement Program (MSPEP), an unique
enablement program for Cisco Channel Partners to overcome common
challenges when building a managed service practice. This
partnership underpins Global Knowledge's and Conceptsales' ongoing
commitment to provide the Channel Partners with the right skills
and knowledge to be successful in selling and exploiting Managed
Services.
Johanan Bos, Director and co-owner at Conceptsales, believes the
MSPEP-partnership will offer a unique and unparalleled solution to
Channel Partners: “Our managed services framework, based on best
practises of more than 100 ICT companies in Europe deserves to be
used worldwide by partners that want to accelerate their manager
services business without doing huge investments. While we develop
and support the framework, Global Knowledge is the perfect partner
to deliver the training in local language since they have the
infrastructure, people and partnership with Cisco worldwide.”
“We are delighted to be working with Conceptsales in delivering the
MSPEP program to Cisco partners across EMEA”, said Jeff Wheeldon,
Global Knowledge’s Cisco Business Development Director for Europe,
the Middle East and Africa. “With Conceptsales’ expertise in Cisco
Managed Services aligned with Global Knowledge’s global footprint
and strong relationship with Cisco and its partners, we believe we
are bringing true value to the market. Our training will take
a traditional Cisco partner and enable them to deliver a complete
Managed Service to their customers.”
The Managed Services Partner Enablement Program provides industry
leading sales and operations tools combined with a 360 degrees
training program bespoke for each partner. More information about
