Each month, your first-Friday delivery of the U.S. partner newsletter, emailed to you as a benefit of your Microsoft Partner Network membership, contains a list of our recommendations for U.S. SMB partners located in the East Region. We also use this list to update our East Region page on the U.S. partner portal.
These recommendations are in the U.S. partner newsletter delivered Friday, March 1. This week’s role-based training recommendations are about the Communications competency, for partners that want to sell, deploy, support, or develop Microsoft Lync solutions.
In addition to the freshly updated online guide to partner resources for Office that reflects the latest resources now that the new Office and the new Office 365 are generally available, here are our recommendations for you this month:
