Koenig Solutions has revealed that its partner, TAQNIA Cyber, has been granted Microsoft Authorised Training Centre certification, allowing them to join the ranks of Microsoft’s Learning Partners authorised to deliver Microsoft Official Courses (MOC).
Receiving the certification is also attributed to the strong ties maintained by TAQNIA Cyber with Koenig, which is considered a valuable Microsoft partner and recipient of the Microsoft Partner of the Year Award in India for six consecutive years.
The partnership between TAQNIA Cyber and Koenig has led to the opening of a modern cyber academy, which is completely aligned with the objectives of Vision 2030 to provide quality training to the Saudi population. With the certification, the academy will now be able to cover Microsoft courses in KSA. According to TAQNIA Cyber senior executives, the new certification is a step forward towards the efforts to play a key role in the country’s Saudisation initiative– the official national policy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
“We will be bringing in the best quality training in the market with training delivered only through in-house trainers and not through freelancers,” said Aditya Girish, Territory Manager Middle East, Koenig Solutions. “Koenig, has the largest pool of IT trainers in the world and the same would be of immense help to cater this demand.
