THE WIN-WIN-WIN SITUATION
For SUN, training services means completing the package of systems and service that the solution provider needs to be competitive. For the solution provider, training is a path to increase margins with little or no overhead, improved account control, and improved customer satisfaction.

SUN offers Sun Education experts to assist you in determining the best Sun Education solutions for your company and for your customers.

SUN EDUCATIONAL ACCOUNT (EA-000-CP) & SKILLS PACKAGES
Customers are demanding “Total Solutions” for their technology needs. Aligning the appropriate training with your Sun hardware and software is a critical step toward building total technology solutions. Skills Packages from Sun can help IT professionals quickly acquire the knowledge they need to accelerate the performance of Sun systems. Skills Packages are one-year pre-paid, customized training solutions designed as an easy way for you to include training as part of your hardware solution. They let you set aside money up front for training that aligns with your technology purchase. An education account is set up for the development and delivery of training solutions.

An EA-000 allows the customer to set aside money for training the following year. Once the company opens the account, any individual in the company can use the funds. This is particularly effective for the budgeting process. As an added benefit, the purchase of a Skills Package entitles you to receive a 5% discount on training services.

SUN CORPORATE LEARNING PASSES
The Sun Corporate Learning Pass are all-in-one solutions offering versatility to allow your employees to select a training time frame and delivery method that accommodates their schedules with just one payment to manage. There are several types of learning passes including 6 month or year long options. One company membership permits the customer to receive training courses, technical learning profiles (TPL), and certification vouchers to be used by one company employee or spread out amongst four to eight employees - your choice. The TPLs identify skill gaps within an IT organization. The program gives you the ability to budget first and focus on the details later.

SUN LEARNING CENTER
Sun Learning Center (SLC) delivers a broad range of content through eContent via a hosted learning solution, simplifying the delivery of training. There are over 1,500 courses available through SLC.

CONSULTING SERVICES
The first step towards improving the end-user employees’ knowledge base is a current evaluation or Gap Analysis. SUN Skills Analysis and Skills Assessments services are designed to help IT Organizations identify training needs for individuals and for the organization. The result of these programs is a set of reports that outline individual skill gaps, individual training development plans, and training for your company’s team.

TRAINING SERVICES THAT ARE PERSONAL AND ACCESSIBLE
With Sun’s comprehensive curriculum and multiple delivery methods, getting what your customer wants is easy. Sun offers learning solutions that best fit student’s needs, in person, web-based or CD-ROMs.
