The IITT today announced Microsoft as the latest sponsor of the IT Training Awards, which are set to be held at the prestigious Dorchester Hotel, London on 3rd February 2011.
With 2011 marking the ceremony’s 14th anniversary, the IT Training Awards recognise outstanding examples of high standards, best practice, innovation and excellence in Learning and Development.
Next year’s ceremony will see Microsoft sponsor the award for ‘Learning Technologies Solution of the Year’ and according to Microsoft’s Partner Channel Training Manager, Garry Corcoran, the Awards are pivotal in driving learning innovation. He said: “Microsoft Learning is excited to be supporting the IITT through the annual IT Training Awards. Engaging learning practitioners in developing innovative content and delivery methods is a requirement of us all to ensure that learners are provided with learning that is easy to access and as effective as it should be. These awards recognise the effort that goes into engaging with business and learners to identify and develop the most appropriate formats that provide learners an opportunity to interact with their learning and to be able to use that new knowledge effectively.”
Microsoft is amongst a host of leading names supporting next year’s ceremony. Colin Steed, Chief Executive, IITT, said: “Microsoft’s involvement in the IT Training Awards is testament to the ceremony’s success in recent years. The Awards are now firmly established as the benchmark for excellence throughout the IT training industry.
