Acer has created an online information and training portal to deliver course material and sales and technical information to its partners.
The service portal (service.acer.co.za) provides multimedia course content backed by qualified instructors to track students` progress, and Acer professionals to answer questions posted online. It also provides desktop, notebook and server support to partners.
Dave Malherbe, technical services manager at Acer, says the Web site allows partners to register and access training materials. Users can then study the course material at their own pace until they are ready to take the sales and technical exams.
"The site will also serve as an information portal, carrying the latest product information and, in future, we will publish details of known bugs and fixes as part of our service to our partners," says Malherbe.
To register for the exams, students must have completed Microsoft`s A+, N+ and S+ courses.
