QA continues to demonstrate exceptional quality with 4th EMEA award for Novell training
QA has been named EMEA Training Partner of the Year by Novell for 2009, winning the award for four of the last five years and adding to the company’s extensive array of awards.
QA is a Novell Platinum Partner, requiring the highest level of accreditation among its instructors. Not only is QA the largest provider of Novell training across EMEA, it also has the broadest Novell curriculum, offering every conceivable course.
Commenting on the decision, Jonathan Finch, EMEA Training Principal at Novell UK, said: “QA continues to lead the market for Novell training, providing both the highest volumes of Novell courses, and more importantly, recording superb scores in delegates’ course critiques. The quality and depth of knowledge of QA’s instructors is second to none.
“QA has been an enthusiastic member of the Novell training partner programme since its very earliest days and they continue to work closely with Novell to support major customer projects and partner enablement.”
QA is the exclusive provider of Novell training to the NHS, a major Novell customer. In addition to the breadth and quality of QA’s instructor-led courses, the company’s extensive geographical coverage of the UK means that customers are never more than half an hour away from a QA classroom, which is crucial for national organisations.
“Our reputation is about more than size: the awards we have received this year recognise the quality as well as quantity of the contribution QA makes to the IT training industry” says Bill Walker, QA’s Commercial and Technical Director. “Not only do our courses provide the strong technical skills individuals need, but our goal is also to make our customers more successful through the holistic development of their people – creating ‘rounded professionals’ whose technical, management and process skills have a real and long-lasting impact on their business.”
The 2009 Novell accolade comes hot on the heels of a series of prestigious awards scooped by QA over the last 12 months. These include:
• Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference Awards winner in Learning Solutions, Impact Partner of the Year
• TrainingIndustry.com Top 20 training outsourcing companies
• VMware Authorised Training Centre of the Year, 2009
• UK Citrix Authorised Learning Centre (CALC) of the Year, 2008
• Sun Education Centre of the Year
• IBM reseller of the year
This broad industry recognition cements QA’s already established position as the leading IT training provider in the UK. The company continues to grow, too, thanks to an aggressive acquisition strategy. Today, QA has over 28 classroom locations around the UK, while its training offerings cover every imaginable need.
