“We would like to extend our congratulations to the PartnerConnect Consulting partners who recently achieved Guidewire specializations,” said Lisa Walsh, vice president, Alliances, Guidewire Software. “We are pleased to reward and recognize these partners for their competency in Guidewire products and solutions and for delivering excellence to our shared insurance customers.”

Specializations are both regionally and globally based and require partners to demonstrate skills, knowledge, and competency in a specific Guidewire product, as validated by Guidewire certification achievements. The attainment of specializations enables insurers to have more clarity and insight into which partners have proven capabilities in a region. In addition, partners with specializations can better promote their capabilities across Guidewire products and solutions.

Guidewire offers several specialization options for Consulting partner staff to differentiate themselves. Guidewire Education offers certifications for business analysts, quality analyst and developers. Recently, they launched new Certified Associate and Certified Ace designations for analysts, which help partners achieve the Guidewire Cloud Specialization and customers identify cloud-ready talent.
