VSP Training - for IT Sales Professionals in the UK

[PursuitMarketin]

We are currently looking for information re VSP training, and how to register for this within the UK?

PursuIT Marketing is an outsourced provider of specialist lead generation services, and we identify/qualify prospects in the UK who are sourcing VMware to facilitate projects in the next 6-12 months. We actively work with a number of VMware partners, who are winning new business from our opportunities and now keen to build on our team's product knowledge by undertaking specialist training. This will allow our team to fully qualify any organisations technical requirements and understand which VMware product/partner woud most effectively meet their needs.

If anyone can advise who we should speak to re this training, and how best to move forward - this would be much appreciated.

Welcoem to the Community - I assume you are referring to the VMware Sales Professional accreditation - This available to VMware partners and thee training and testing is all online and available through Partner Central.

This is going to be the best place to go first: http://www.vmware.com/partners/

Thanks for you reply...

I looked at registering as a VMware partner, but it seems a requirement for that is 1 x VSP accredited member of staff - so bit of a catch 22.

I believe there is a partner level that will provide you to Partner Central where you can have individuals take the VSP training and tests - I would contact VMware directory =

Become a "registered" partner in the first instance, and take it from there, this was just 2 clicks deeper than the link I posted previously:

If you have a relationship with a decent distributor, they should be able to offer help/guidance too.
