Get ready for FY19 with the new sales certifications

[jimlucari]

HPE has launched two of three new sales certifications that are part of the FY19 Partner Ready requirements. These certifications will arm you and your teams with the questions, skills and knowledge to deliver the right HPE technologies.

As an HPE Partner, your organization may be required to obtain either one, two or all three of these certifications based on your organization’s Partner Ready specialization and region. Details and requirements are available from your local HPE contact.

Here is a quick overview of the three new sales certifications and their availability.

HPE Sales Certified - Hybrid IT Solutions [2019]—Available February, 2019

This coming HPE sales certification has evolved over the past few years from product focused to value based. This evolution will continue as we align the partner Hybrid IT Solutions [2019] certification with HPE’s new internal FY19 sales team accreditation training program. Better alignment between internal HPE and partner sales teams allows us to speak with one voice to customers.

The HPE Sales Certified - Hybrid IT Solutions [2019] certification will be released February, 2019.
