Oracle Urges Partners to Become ‘Specialized’
New PartnerNetwork designation features four partner levels, and applies to more than 35 different solution areas.
Oracle’s new PartnerNetwork “Specialized” enables partners to establish industry recognition by following a formal process to become specialized in key Oracle solution areas.
Oracle is calling the new Specialized designation the “most significant evolution of the Oracle PartnerNetwork in over a decade.”
Built on the foundation of Oracle Enablement 2.0 training and support, partners achieve specialization in specific areas through competency, business results, expertise, and what Oracle calls “proven success.”
Specialization delivers three important benefits:
1.††† It enables partners to differentiate themselves by becoming Specialized across Oracle’s portfolio of products.
2.††† Oracle gives recognition to partners that have invested in its portfolio and have the competency to support its user customers.
3.††† It provides customers with the ability to select preferred partners with validated skills and experience.
Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN) Specialized will feature four partner levels: Oracle Remarketer, Gold, Silver, and Platinum. As partners leverage Oracle Enablement 2.0 training resources, they can attain specialized status across an initial list of more than 35 different Oracle application, middleware, database, or industry solution areas.
Oracle says it intends to offer over 50 specializations by the end of the fiscal year.
A complete list of specialization areas is available online.
