New Executive Certificate in Business Agility Highlights Spring 2014
Channel Training Curriculum from CompTIA
SAN DIEGO, April 3, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A program to help
executives align their technology businesses with today's market
realities is one of several new educational offerings available to
information technology (IT) channel companies through CompTIA, the
non-profit association for the industry.
The Executive Certificate in Business Agility program is part of the
CompTIA Channel Training Catalog for Spring 2014. The catalog was
released here this week during the CompTIA Annual Member Meeting.
"Many market forces and evolving technology solutions are transforming
the landscape," said Kelly Ricker, senior vice president, events and
education, CompTIA. "Some channel businesses are thriving in this
environment, while others are struggling. The Executive Certificate in
Business Agility program reveals a pathway that business owners and
executives can follow to thrive on their own terms and adapt their
business by choice, not by chance."
Workshop participants will examine the factors that can lead to
business change and study how companies have succeeded in adapting.
Next, they'll evaluate their own business, including market factors,
opportunities, delivery capacity, operations, strategy and leadership.
Finally, participants will learn how to manage a successful business
transformation.
All CompTIA Executive Certificate programs are developed by leading
experts from the IT industry and are delivered by CompTIA Authorized
Channel Instructors. Options for self-paced, online and face-to-face
learning are available.
New Workshops
Three new workshops are also part of CompTIA's latest channel training
catalog.
The Cloud-based Telephony Playbook Workshop examines how cloud
computing is making voice-over-IP services both more accessible to
customers and more viable as an offering for a growing number of
solution providers.
The Advanced Communications Playbook Workshop covers opportunities for
channel partners to deliver video conferencing, cloud-delivered
applications, unified communications, collaboration and other
solutions.
CompTIA's Mobile Device Management Playbook Workshop explores how
solution providers can help customers expand their use of mobile apps
and technologies and manage the growing and diverse inventory of
devices.
Also new are a Quick Start Guide and Quick Start Session on Profitable
Partnering, which review best practices for partnering, strategic
planning and business strategies; managing relationships; and more.
CompTIA channel training is just one example of how the association
re-invests its resources into the IT channel.
This week CompTIA unveiled a new open access model designed to advance
the IT industry and help make channel partners more successful. The
new model provides registered users with no-cost access to a selection
of web-based content, including Quick Start Guides. Premier members
gain access to the full array of CompTIA content, plus additional
benefits.
