Technology Partner

The Technology Partner Program (TPP) is designed to leverage the commercial efforts of semantic tool vendors in delivering education services specifically focused on their tool. It entitles partners to have their tool taught by EPs around the globe, thereby offloading semantic tool vendors from training tasks which are not at the core of their business. As a consequence, TPPs gain access to a global network of EPs eager to teach their (your) customers the specifics of your product. Additionally, TPs with the required level of membership benefit from custom-made pre-sales workshops around the world.

Key Benefits of the TPP

As Technology Partner, you will profit from having your tool taught by the EPP network around the globe:

  • Reduce training overhead and focus on the core of your business.
  • Leverage your sales through work-shops world-wide featuring your product.
  • Access an extensive market of existing and new customers and partners.
  • Partner with a global network of EPs.
  • Increase opportunities via access to tools and expert knowledge.
  • Build and support your customer base with prepackaged content, course and certification materials.
  • Improve your sales offer with leading education on semantic technologies.

Membership levels

The TPP offers 3 tiers of membership to deliver specific benefits to partners of varied skills and business needs, helping tool vendors to quickly off-load education services related to their products. The different levels of membership are as follows:

  • Silver Partners: This is the entry-level membership tier for the TPP, and is open to all tool vendors who are interested in having their tool taught by the EAPP network.
  • Gold Partners: This TPP membership tier is intended for partners who have expanded their customer base and required additional help with their education offer.
  • Platinum Partners: This is the top tier of the TPP and is designed for partners who have a large customer base and require greater support in the organization of workshops and seminars.

 

Each membership tier comes with a certain level of benefits as seen in the TPP Membership Level Comparison Chart.
