Since 2013 Red Hat has provided enablement for partner organizations through the Red Hat Partner Training Portal, a training and accreditation platform designed to empower partners and supply them with the reliable guidance needed to support sales, improve customer service and deliver Red Hat-related service engagements. Based on feedback from partners, Red Hat is extending enablement materials for partner associates acting as customer-facing IT support, consultants, solutions architects, system administrators and developers. Red Hat Training courses previously only available to customers, are now open to partners with no fee required.
Keeping pace in an industry that demands constant innovation means organizations must rely on a skilled workforce to support digital transformation, technology development and customer services. Red Hat Training and Certification offers a curriculum of self-paced learning and hands-on labs to help IT professionals broaden competencies and validate skills with Red Hat technologies. In fact, a Red Hat commissioned IDC study found that organizations using Red Hat Training courses can achieve a three-year return on investment of 365% and increase productivity by enabling associates to learn at their own pace through online modules and labs.1
The initial Red Hat Training offerings that are open to partners include 17 courses, available in eight languages, accessible through the Red Hat Partner Training Portal and paving the way for future skills development through accreditation and certification. With these courses, partners are better positioned to accelerate skills development and achieve Red Hat Certification.
