The alliance will help Arrow’s channel partners make the most out of cloud opportunities

Arrow has joined forces with CompTIA to launch The Cloud Enablement Programme. The Cloud Enablement Programme has been designed to help businesses transition to new cloud service models and maximise the potential of selling cloud services.

The programme is a portfolio of enablement resources, consultancy, marketing, training and knowledge transfer. It aims to empower Arrow`s channel customers to grow a profitable and sustainable cloud services business by eliminating both cost and complexity from development and delivery.

Businesses in the programme will receive a specially designed Delivery Cycle to guide them successfully through five key stages: Onboard, Plan, Enable, Execute and Reward.
