How does Edgewood's partnership with Microsoft benefit the customer? Through engagement with Microsoft, Microsoft Gold Certified Partners have in-depth access to a variety of exclusive resources and early product information. Resources include priority access to a support team of Microsoft certified systems engineers, non-disclosure evaluation of new products and technologies, as well as planning tools and events to keep up to speed on the latest Microsoft product developments and future direction.
Edgewood employs Microsoft Certified Professionals; individuals who have passed certification exams designed to validate their mastery using Microsoft tools and technologies. A recent study of Microsoft Certified Systems Engineers (MCSEs) and their supervisors by Jack McKillip, Ph.D. at Southern Illinois University, rated MCPs as highly effective workers on the job and IT supervisors rated MCSEs
as more competent on all global dimensions as compared to
non-certified systems engineers. Microsoft continues to invest
in certification and enhanced resources and support for
Microsoft Gold Certified Partners as part of their ongoing
commitment to provide customers with choice and best of breed
product solutions via Microsoft Gold Certified Partner companies
such as Edgewood Solutions.
