Microsoft Adoption and Change Management Partner program

Hello folks,  would anyone be able to let me know if Microsoft offers an Adoption and Change Management Partner program? Thank you very much!

    Sorry for the slow reply -- Yes there is one, via Microsoft Services that has been piloted in the UK and Australia the past 12 months (we have been fortunate enough to be part of the pilot).  At Microsoft Inspire in DC there was a session that discussed opening up the program to other territories.  Basically it enables Microsoft Partners to license Prosci based Adoption and Change materials used by Microsoft Services' Adoption & Change Management team.

     

    I would ask your Partner Manager / local Microsoft Services folk if you are interested in the program.

        Hi Sharon. The programme was called “Adoption Services offer for Microsoft Partners.”  It may have only been offered to a small group of partners in the UK and Australia. As Paul Woods mentioned, there will be more details after Microsoft Inspire about the expansion of the programme.

      Thank you for your feedback, Paul Woods.  This is exactly what I was looking for. I don't believe we have a program established for Canada yet.  Would you be able to point me to anyone in particular that I could reach out to inquire about this? We have been doing working in the adoption area with great success and it would be great to be able to formalize our relationship with Microsoft.

       

      Thank you!

        Hey Deleted any luck getting a hold of those materials? I am in Canada and would love to formalize my approach with what MS is doing as well.

      You need to know for fasttrack that you need a minimum of licenses to get Fasttrack support.
