What about becoming a Citrix Specialist?
In January 2015 at Citrix Summit, the annual partner conference held in Las Vegas, NV, Citrix announced the Specialist program:
"Partners who achieve a Specialist distinction have been rigorously vetted to join an elite group of best-of-breed partners with demonstrated success in real-world customer projects. While other Partners often participate in only part of an engagement, Specialists will be experts at providing end-to-end planning, designing, implementing, managing and supporting of your project needs."
Specialist designations are available for:
- Virtualization
- Mobility Management
- Networking for Data Center
- Networking for Apps and Mobile Security
Requirements:
We already held all of the required certifications at the time of the Specialist announcement, including many certified at the highest levels across several disciplines:
- Citrix Certified Expert - Virtualization (5 Lewan team members)
- Citrix Certified Professional - Mobility (3 Lewan team members)
- Citrix Certified Professional - Networking (4 Lewan team members)
To complete the requirements, Lewan Technology Citrix professionals then spent several months acquiring customer validations and passing the practicum on top of a typical project load. Unlike other exams, the practicum involves building out a tailored solution then having the solution graded by Citrix.
