How ICT Partners Achieve Success
The ICT Partner Program is built on the foundation of shared success, supporting partner growth, and recognizing the dedication of partners who champion ICT products and services. Partner Program members gain access to a range of benefits and resources that not only recognize their dedication but allows them to deliver exceptional value to customers, giving them a competitive edge.
The ICT Partner Program is currently only available for integration partners in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Your success, rewarded
The program recognizes the success of integration partners by providing a range of exclusive benefits and rewards. Currently available to partners in Australia and New Zealand, these tier-specific incentives are designed to help partners grow their business success and strengthen their ongoing commitment to ICT.
All new integrators will be automatically enrolled in the Partner Program after successfully completing the Protege GX onboarding process and fulfilling the prerequisite of having two current certified Level 1 Protege GX installers in direct employment. To remain in the program, partners must meet an annual spend requirement.
