 Apprenda, the leading provider of enterprise Platform as a Service (PaaS), has formalised the training of its Enterprise PaaS into a new three-day Apprenda Certified Expert (ACE) programme. This hands-on, instructor-led training is designed to give a designated team the skills necessary to deliver, implement, and utilise the Apprenda platform in the enterprise.
The Apprenda platform is a PaaS software layer that transforms any infrastructure into a policy driven hybrid cloud application platform. With Apprenda, enterprise development teams can securely deliver an entire ecosystem of data, services, applications and APIs to internal and external customers across any infrastructure.
“For several years our Client Services team has trained hundreds of developers and platform operators at dozens of Fortune 100 companies,” Matthew Ammerman, Apprenda Vice President of Client Services, said. “This training has been invaluable for our customers and partners, so we've decided to offer a scheduled training programme so that customers and partners can plan ahead and have their staff officially certified by Apprenda.”
The ACE program has four tracks:
Apprenda Certified Platform Operator (ACPO) – Technical – For IT and DevOps
Apprenda Certified Application Developer (ACAD) – Technical – For application developers and product managers
Apprenda Certified Platform Evangelist (ACPE) – Sales/Business Development – For sales and business development professionals
Apprenda Certified Solutions Architect (ACSA) – Sales/Business Development – For sales and solutions engineers
These tracks equip Apprenda customers and partners with the fundamental knowledge necessary to plan and implement an enterprise PaaS rollout with the Apprenda platform.  Attendees in technical tracks learn the architecture of Apprenda’s technology, infrastructure requirements and preparation, and more.  Sales and Business Development attendees explore the PaaS landscape and strategies for designing PaaS-centric solutions.
 
Apprenda hosted its first-ever ACE program in February at its headquarters in Troy, N.Y. Customer and partner participants left with deep knowledge of the Apprenda platform and earned their ACE certifications.
 
“Apprenda’s training sessions were thorough, detailed and provided a solid foundation for partners to understand how its PaaS platform works, its value proposition to enterprises, and key differentiators for automating DevOps,” said Ari Amster, management consultant and new Apprenda Certified Platform Evangelist.

Apprenda’s next certification training will take place in May. Customers, partners, and developers interested in being trained with the industry’s leading PaaS should visit Apprenda’s Certification Training registration page.
