Channel Partners (e.g. agents, VARs, integrators) can differentiate themselves in the marketplace and distinguish themselves to customers and suppliers in their ability to support convergence solutions.
Individuals can validate their competency across a broad range of communications topics including convergence, broadband and voice over IP.
