Channel Partner Marketing Training and Certification

Are Your Channel Partners Experts in Partner Marketing?

Most of them simply can't be. Technology resellers are typically SMB's that are founded and led by technologists. They rarely have a full-time dedicated marketing person, let alone a marketing function. Even if they have people with marketing experience, they rarely understand the critical differences and specific challenges of co-marketing with vendors.

At the same time, they operate in crowded markets with often undifferentiated solutions and are in desperate need for marketing strategies and best practices. Vendor channel marketing teams and partner marketing academies are certainly helpful. Channel partner marketing training courses, workshops and content from the Channel Institute can also fill critical missing pieces of this puzzle. A final goal may even be a channel partner training and certification program for your channel partners.

Our courses are reviewed and validated by the Industry Advisory Council, comprised of senior partner marketing and channel management thought leaders at major employers worldwide providing expert recommendations. Our syllabus is influenced and directed by these global employers to ensure you have the knowledge that they need. The Channel Institute is also currently undergoing the audit process for ISO29990. This is an internationally recognized standard for providers of learning services. It recognizes that the training provider has formal processes in place to ensure their courses meet the highest standards globally.
