Training and Testing for IronPort Specialization Track
The Cisco IronPort Partner Training Program is designed for partner account managers and engineers and gives them the sales and technical training knowledge required to sell, evaluate, install, and troubleshoot Cisco IronPort solutions. By passing the tests, your employees demonstrate their mastery of security solutions.
Refer to the IronPort Specialization Training and Testing graphic below for the training and testing for account managers and engineers. For the partner to become IronPort Bronze, one account manager must pass the ASAM test and one engineer must pass either WSFE or ESFE (or both). For Silver or Gold, partners must have 2 to 3 AMs plus 2 to 3 engineers.
