Together, we are reshaping technology solutions for the future and fulfilling our commitment to the channel.

The First Role-Based AI Partner Certification & Training Program in the Industry
The HP Future Ready AI MasterClass, an AI partner training and certification initiative powered by HP University, has officially launched its first phase. Salespeople, account managers, and technical consultants may all benefit from the program's specialized role-based training, which gives HP Amplify partners the tools they need to fulfill the increasing demand for AI solutions.

 

In our industry, a new age is beginning now. The HP AI MasterClass excites me, and we want to make the most of it throughout the entire Connection team," stated Camden Haley, senior director of product management. "HP offers a fantastic partner enablement program."

To improve customer experience and support long-term growth objectives, the first pathway, AI Fundamentals, provides self-paced online training and videos on AI use cases, HP's AI solutions portfolio, and an overview of the data analytics platform, HP Amplify Data Insights.

Throughout the program, partners will be guided by specific role-based learning paths that offer valuable ideas for AI installation and solution sales. In response to partner feedback, HP intends to roll out more paths, making sure partners are prepared to counsel clients on how HP's broad range of more than 100 AI-enabled products may address their particular requirements.

Partner Capabilities are Enhanced with HP Amplify Growth Plays
Through HP Amplify Growth Plays, a new program with special tools, cutting-edge capabilities, and compensation components based on the company's growth categories, all qualified HP Amplify Commercial Partners taking part in the initial roll out now have access to this opportunity.

With the launch of Video Collaboration, HP's first Growth Play, partners in distribution and commercial resellers may now take advantage of the advantages HP gained from its acquisition of Poly into the channel. With the global market for video conferencing expected to reach over 17 billion dollars by 2030, HP's Video Collaboration Growth Play offers specialized audio video integrators more chances to boost sales.


HP intends to launch its second Growth Play, which will be centered on AI Data Science, this summer. This will give partners the chance to build sophisticated skills in the rapidly expanding AI space. In order to participate in the AI Data Science Growth Play, which will be open to all qualified partners in November, partners will need to first complete the AI MasterClass, which is the first step in their AI journey with HP. As the data science market is predicted to increase from over 80 billion in 2022 to over 480 billion by 2029, HP is ideally positioned to lead the way in educating partners on data science and artificial intelligence skills to help them be prepared for the future.

The Active Care Services, which are now referred to as Premium + Support, and Digital Services are further Amplify Growth Plays that will launch in the autumn.
