WatchGuard: Going for GOLD- update

Today is an important day for us. Today we were presented with the WatchGuard ONE Gold plaque. This is the reward for over 6 months of hard work. Our team of engineers and sales personnel have been studying hard. This was in order to help us attain our goal of becoming a WatchGuard ONE Gold Partner.

The requirements involved having a minimum of:

a) 2 sales trained staff – this required that the 2 staff selected participate in 2 sales approved Webinars for WatchGuard ONE each and then complete a small set of questions.

b) 2 technically certified engineers – this involved sending 2 of our engineers to attend a 3-day training course at our distributor’s (Nuvias) offices in Woking. The engineers were then required to study for and pass a 2hr, 45 question exam with a pass rate of 75%

c) 2 technical competency certified engineers, our newly technically certified engineers were sent to Nuvias again for a 2-day advanced course, they were then required to pick 1 of 5 competencies to study, take and pass another 2hr, 45 question exam based solely on the competency they had chosen.

As a commitment to our company values, we also went above the required criteria and sent an additional 2 engineers to Nuvias to attend the 1-day Technical course in order to equip our staff in the best way possible to support all of our clients when using the WatchGuard products.

Special thanks

We would like to thank our staff for their commitment and hard work in attaining WatchGuard ONE GOLD Partner status. We would also like to congratulate Laura Jones and Mitch Collis our 2 Sales Trained members of staff. Jason Potter and Tony Woodhouse for passing both the Technical Certified engineer, and the Technical Competent engineer Exams. Dan Stewart and Mike Foster for attending the 1-day technical course.
