Altiris, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATRS), a pioneer of service-oriented management solutions, today announced the availability of Altiris Advanced Technical Training workshops to help IT administrators gain hands-on skills development and in-depth technical knowledge of Altiris technologies. The new workshops can help Altiris customers better leverage an investment in the Altiris platform and diverse product portfolio to help align IT service with business objectives.
Altiris Advanced Technical Training workshops are the most comprehensive education offering for Altiris customers and are an excellent next step to leverage existing foundational and computer-based training courses.
Altiris Advanced Technical Training workshops provide an opportunity for customers to dive into the inner-workings of Altiris service-oriented management solutions. These new workshops provide scenario-based, hands-on technical training for Altiris solutions. Therefore, Altiris recommends that workshop participants have a minimum of two years experience with Altiris products.
“Better alignment of IT with business objectives has put pressure on IT organizations to get the most out of IT investments while improving service to the organization,” said Bill Holzendorf, Altiris director of professional services. “Altiris has developed powerful service-oriented management software that is ready to be stretched to its full potential by IT administrators with advanced skills. Customer demand for instructor-led training to develop advanced skills has convinced us to provide Altiris Advanced Technical Training workshops.”
Altiris Advanced Technical Training is available in March at Altiris headquarters in Utah for Altiris® Notification Server™ software and Altiris® Patch Management Solution™ software.
