Microsoft is to offer e-learning courses in designing,
implementing and managing Microsoft technology.
The initiative will enable Microsoft’s certified partners for
learning solutions to offer blended learning programmes that allow
IT professionals to study alone for industry-recognised
certifications.
IT professionals will be able to work through courses at their
own pace and at a time and place convenient to them. Courses on the
Microsoft E-Learning programme have been designed to help IT
workers update skills and prepare for certification exams and new
technology projects.
Duncan Anderson, skills development manager at training provider
Parity, said, “Courses on the Microsoft E-Learning programme are a
rich and valuable resource for training partners. Modern business
demands flexibility in the delivery of IT training to workers, and
online courses address this need perfectly.”
Ram Dhaliwal, manager for training and certification at
Microsoft, said, “Feedback from our certified training partners,
customers and the training industry as a whole showed us that there
was a clear demand for online training courses in Microsoft
technology.
