My word for the year is “magic.” But I’m not pulling a rabbit out of a hat. I’m talking about using new opportunities to create innovation that feels like magic. You can learn how at the IBM Center for Cloud Training (ICCT).

In the coming months, ICCT will be center stage where there are plenty of new opportunities for learning and certification.

 

January

IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions Certification

On January 31, ICCT kicks off its newest certification program, IBM Cloud for VMware Solutions. In this curriculum, you’ll learn the magic of migrating large-scale VMware environments to one of the most open and secure public clouds – IBM Cloud – using existing tools, technologies, and skills.

You’ll learn how to design, build, and run VMware environments efficiently in IBM Cloud with a curriculum that features a portfolio of five different VMware offerings and includes the opportunity to earn a digital badge as you progress.

ICCT’s self-paced program also allows you to skip the assets you’re already familiar with and focus your time on the modules that matter the most. Stay tuned.

Update coming January 31.
