What is the Outstanding Leader award?
CompTIA’s Outstanding Leader is awarded to selected partners for their commitment to helping people reach their full potential – and is presented at the 2022 CompTIA Partner Summit.
Designed to recognise CompTIA partners who have performed exceptionally well as leaders, the prestigious award is described by Graham Hunter, CompTIA’s executive vice president for global business development as being in place to honour “The incredible work performed by our partners has made a positive impact in the lives of tens of thousands of people around the world
Learning People (APAC) Director Mike Geare had this to say:
“It is a great achievement that Learning People APAC have helped more students through CompTIA certifications than any other provider in this region for the last three years running. This is a testament to our award-winning Student Care and Career Services teams in Australia and New Zealand ensuring students not only finish their certifications but maximise the skills they have learnt through us to either enter the tech industry or advance within it. We look forward to leading the tech training industry within Australia and New Zealand now and in the future.”
