It means mastery. Through focused training and enablement, your team gains the expertise to confidently install and implement specific Cohesity solutions. Cohesity PS Authorization empowers your business to elevate your market position, differentiate your brand, and create long-term competitive advantage. With PS Authorization, you don't just deploy solutions, you deepen customer value across the entire solution lifecycle. By following authorized servicing methods and proven best practices, you strengthen customer trust, improve outcomes, and reinforce your role as a strategic advisor. And it's more than expertise, it's differentiation. So what does it take to become PS Authorized? It starts with building the right bench strength. You'll need two team members with current installation certifications and two team members certified in the same solution area, ensuring depth and consistency in your expertise. Let's talk about the authorization path. Each certification follows a defined authorization path, complete the required course curriculum, and successfully pass a proctored exam. This structured process validates expertise and upholds the quality standards customers expect. The PS Authorization course content is delivered through a single, curated learning journey covering installation, data protect implementation, smart files, and Microsoft 365. It's streamlined and designed to build practical, deployment-ready capability, accelerating your readiness to deliver services at scale. Ready to get started? First, review the Professional Services Authorization for Partners document to determine how a services-led approach aligns with your business model and growth strategy.
