SureSkills and Global Knowledge Announce Alliance

Save time and money by avoiding travel and accommodation charges
Same expert instructors as our ‘classic’ classroom training.
Large range of “Guaranteed to Run” events, so the event will not cancel.
Same content and official materials and support for all delegates
Dedicated ‘hands-on’ Lab access for full duration of class
Effective and interactive learning for employees across multiple locations
Access to the class recording for up to 90 days post course.

“SureSkills has tremendous training and certification experience, customer reach and local knowledge, and will complement our global training services offering,” Steven Purcell of Global Knowledge Ireland said. “Working together we can now offer clients of SureSkills and Global Knowledge a wider range of training course in a wider range of modalities so that each learner gets the right type of training when and where they need it.”

“Our customers want to access the latest training and certification in a wide range of technologies and disciplines. This alliance allows SureSkills to offer flexible learning on a vast range of topics by removing the physical limitations attached to traditional learning. By offering Global Knowledge’s Virtual Classroom Live to our customers a delegate can attend in person or as a virtual delegate – the choice is theirs. Students are able to work from anywhere at a time that suits them.” said Alison Egan, General Manager at SureSkills Training & Certification. “Combining our 40 plus years of experience with Global Knowledge, we will now be able to offer the additional benefits of virtual attendance of live classes on less popular specialist topics otherwise difficult to organise.
