Services Education Program with Conceptsales
Wokingham (United Kingdom), 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
