IBM Lotus and WebSphere Portal Sales Mastery Courses Coming Soon!

Now is the time to grow your skills and test your sales mastery with Lotus. Lotus is updating and developing new Sales Mastery tests for our entire portfolio of products. We know that IBM Business partners who are most skilled deliver highest client satisfaction and value, while meeting and beating their sales goals

Work is underway to finalize a new IBM WebSphere Portal Sales Mastery 201 course and exam, targeted for availability on June 1, 2009. This will ensure you are able to meet the Portal requirements for certification under IBM's new Growth Through Skills Initiative. Additional updated  Sales Mastery exams for Advanced Collaboration and Notes Domino will follow.  

Our sales course will be available via the IBM Virtual Innovation Center (VIC) and IBM PartnerWorld, and the Sales Mastery exam will be administered by Prometric.
