Tech Data Opens Mobility University for Partners

Mobility solutions are getting more important to the channel every day, and Tech Data Corp. has been focusing more and more on mobile.

The effort included a joint venture between Brightstar and Tech Data to create the TDMobility infrastructure and numerous agreements with Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T and Sprint that allow resellers to supply and configure mobile devices on the customers' carrier of choice.

Now, Tech Data is creating a centralized partner education resource to match the other investments the company has been making in mobility solutions.

The Clearwater, Fla.-based distributor on Monday announced its TDMobility University on Monday. The portal's partner resource includes online training videos for products, sales, mobile strategy, mobile policy, mobile security and mobile device management. The portal also includes sales resources, such as white-labeled presentations, meeting scripts and e-mail templates.
