With the increasing focus on return on investment, there is a concomitant need for South African resellers to be certified and to continuously improve their knowledge and skills.
Acknowledging this, leading systems distributor Comztek has announced an initiative, which sees the company partnering with leading training provider Torque IT. The partnership will focus on exposing the channel to cost-effective training on leading IT brands.
Explains Jenny-Lee Williams, marketing manager at Comztek: "Our partnership with Torque IT empowers resellers to get certified easily and cost-effectively. Resellers can now obtain certification on solutions from Adobe, Cisco, 3Com, Microsoft, Network Associates and Novell.
"This initiative also underscores our commitment to the channel and complements the informal training sessions already provided by Comztek on the majority of the leading brands we represent."
Through Comztek`s reseller loyalty and reward programme, Comztek Appreciation Programme (CAP), the distributor`s customers will be able to redeem CAP points for training hours at Torque IT. This is in addition to the programme`s existing Voyager Miles and Support Hours benefits.
Resellers earn CAP miles with every purchase, which can then be accumulated and redeemed for South African Airways Voyager Miles or Support Hours from Comztek`s Technical Services and Support Centre.
Currently, Comztek is the only distributor to provide regular informal training on Microsoft`s new licensing program Multi-Year Open (MYO), while the company`s Symantec team hosts a Security Forum once a week, providing an informal and open platform for users to discuss security issues and other related topics.
Concludes Williams: "This new training partnership will also give resellers the know-how to create innovative and reliable new solutions for their customers, thus guaranteeing ROI and service excellence."
