EMEA VPN Partner Marketing Guide Q3 2013
VSP 5 / VTSP 5 Boot Camp
Overview
This is an instructor-led version of the VMware Sales Professional (VSP) or the VMware Technical Sales Professional
(VTSP) curriculum and accreditation. Most partners take VSP/VTSP in a self-paced, e-learning format. However, there
are times when a face-to-face training is more appropriate.
For example:
· To jump-start companies where they have not accredited to an expected level
· Where self-paced training is not consistent with the partner's culture
· Where partners do not have high-speed internet access
· Where a face-to-face training is a conscious method for building VMware's relationship with the partner
