MSPAlliance, Microsoft to work together
MCP Magazine | at | by Mike
The International Association of Managed Service Providers and Microsoft today said they are joining forces to better educate and certify companies using Microsoft IT management tools.
Charles Weaver, president of the MSPAlliance, described the relationship with Microsoft as a kind of "reciprocal recognition" -- for the MSPAlliance's Managed Services Accreditation exam and Microsoft's IT infrastructure certification.
"When a company takes our exam and specifies they have achieved Microsoft IT certification, they will receive credit for that, whereas today they do not," Weaver explained. "Conversely, Microsoft is promoting the Managed Services Accreditation exam to their partners worldwide" a big win for us."
