The Microsoft Partner Program
The Microsoft partner program began its journey in 2000. Since then the program has evolved with the times keeping pace with the ever-evolving business world, its partner network to extend its global capabilities.
In Q1 this year, Microsoft announced the evolution of its partner program, to ensure it reflected the way organisations operate today, and the needs of the modern workplace. As of Q4 2022, the Silver & Gold partner competencies starts its evolution into a range of Microsoft Designations, with the existing partner competencies remaining for 18 months to allow a smooth transition for both partners and customers.
