Announcement Letter Number 508-845 (April 29, 2008)
IBM Business Partner enterprises that have eligible Business Partner
locations in more than one country throughout the world will soon be
able, subject to IBM approval, to meet their product certification
requirements by having certified employees located in only one of
the countries, or in any combination of the countries, as long as
the total number of certifications attained in all countries meets the
total number of certifications required for all countries.
- For example, if one sales certification and one technical
certification are required for an IBM product in one country
and one sales certification and one technical certification are
required for the product in a different country, the two sales
certifications and two technical certifications for the product
could be located in one of the countries or could be located in
any combination of the countries.
This change is intended to enable IBM Business Partner firms
to aggregate their IBM certifications in whichever way is most
convenient for them and to support their IBM Business Partner operations
in multiple countries while remaining responsible to provide the same
level of support as would otherwise be required.
