Virtual Training for Sales Channel Partners Available with Itron University

August 26, 2020

At Itron, we are investing in and supporting our channel partners to drive our collective success and more importantly, solve our customer’s challenges, especially in the midst of a global pandemic. Itron University, our significantly enhanced online training platform for our channel partners, offers our channel partners to learn about our products and solutions while practicing social distancing.

Previously, Itron hosted in-person training for channel partners as the main vehicle to share product and solutions knowledge. As part of the Itron channel strategy and in an effort to make the training more accessible and scalable, we have introduced Itron University which forms the foundation of our new Global Sales Channel Partner Program, Itron Engage. Designed to equip partners to sell and support Itron’s solutions, Itron University provides educational resources and best-in-class support to ensure that partners have the information they need to be successful.

Itron University educates our channel partners on the breadth and depth of Itron’s solutions and allows more people to participate in online training from their at-home offices. Channel partners can become certified on Itron’s products and solutions at their own pace and in an on-demand environment. This is a major shift and provides the flexibility that our channel partners demand in light of this new normal that we live in today.
