e are introducing some new Microsoft Licensing courses covering SQL 2012 and Systems Centre 2012. We are also covering virtualising
licensing so the course will help you to understand how licensing works when Windows Server and applications such as Exchange, SharePoint and SQL are deployed in virtualised environments, and to understand the licensing implications of using VDI to deliver virtualised desktops to a variety of devices.
Tese are fast-growing areas of business so finding our feet early on could be very profitable. Te courses have been created in partnership with Microsoft and you won’t find them anywhere else. Even better news is that like all our Microsoft Boot Camp training, they are free for eligible resellers to attend. We have already held the first course in London and it went really well. Te second was due to take place on 8 March in Leeds and there will be a third event at Te National Motorcycle Museum, Birmingham on 16 May. More will follow throughout the year. Please email
