Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) salutes our community of global partners who have obtained the distinction of Master Accredited Solutions Experts (MASE) in Storage Solutions. They have earned this title through many man-months of learning and experience, and now we celebrate their accomplishments in the week-long Master ASE Storage Conference 2016 in beautiful Colorado Springs, Colorado where the focus will be on pioneering the New Style of Business, eliminating storage boundaries and enabling the idea economy.  

HPE Master Storage Solution Architects hold one of HPE’s most demanding credentials.  As a leader, the Master ASE translates business requirements into complex or multi-site storage solutions based on HPE Storage products across physical, virtual and cloud environments. They have proven skillsets in managing de-duplication and backup/recovery solutions. To earn this elite certification these experts have achieved the necessary group of tests in HPE’s Partner Ready Certification and Learning series and have devoted their valuable time to maintaining their skills in each of their focus areas.

Impressive, right?

Now imagine these gurus getting together in one location! The exclusive by-invitation-only Master ASE Storage Conference delivers a unique opportunity to participate in rich technical training delivered by HPE engineers, including updates on the most popular storage technologies.  Small group formats allow our Masters to network, build peer-to-peer relationships and provide input to HPE technical experts in storage. This popular event is sold-out every year! One of the biggest benefits of being an HPE Master ASE is the opportunity, such as this conference, to rub shoulders with peers and technical gurus. Attendees quickly exchange ideas and come up to speed on the latest and greatest technology that is transforming the industry. Lively discussions are held regarding where the technology fits, how to optimize it and sharing best practices. All of this contributes to an in-depth understanding and increased confidence to deploy Hewlett Packard Enterprise solutions.

HPE MASEs are our most trusted partners and you too can achieve this level of certification (or move up the certification and learning stack) with Hewlett Packard Enterprise Partner Ready Certification and Learning.  If you are looking to enhance your technical sales career and job satisfaction as a certified storage expert, and increasing your credibility as an IT professional with a proven skillset then HPE Partner Certification and Learning programs can help you grow.

To learn more about the levels of certification and learning you can accomplish in 2016, check out http://certification-learning.hpe.com/tr/certification.html

We look forward to a fun week together with our MASE partners in Colorado the week of February 7-12th.

Join in the conversation #HPE

This is an invaluable event, I attended around 10 years ago but have not been back since. For those with their Master ASE in place for storage, is there any way to get on a list for a potential invite next year?

Great question Ben,

In order for you to recieve invitations to our exclusive Master ASE events, you need to opt-in to emails from our program. Opting-in will put you on the list for Master ASE webinars, conferences, and Tek Talks. Master ASEs also recieve early bird access to event registration, program information as well as the ability to participate in our HPE exam workshops.

How to opt-in:

Individuals need to submit a Live Chat or Email Case with the Partner Ready Portal Support team using the Get Support icon at http://partner.hpe.com link. This case will be routed to the profiling team where they will modify your opt-in / opt-out preferences for email, phone and mail as requested.  

This method will opt you back into communications from our team and the Partner Ready program.
