NetSuite helps partners develop consulting talent with SuiteLife campus initiative
As the fight for talent gets fiercer, businesses across all industries are challenged to find, hire, develop, and retain talent. This is especially noticeable in the software industry and as NetSuite grows its customer base, we are seeing demand for NetSuite expertise and qualified consultants at an all-time high. To help our partners who often don’t have the time, infrastructure, or capacity to train new talent – as well as support a broad NetSuite partner ecosystem to give our customers greater choice – we are introducing SuiteLife Campus.
SuiteLife Campus is a talent development initiative that helps our partners expand their teams by offering accelerated training to new college graduates or career change candidates to create a stronger, more diverse ecosystem of NetSuite consultants. The initiative energizes students’ career trajectories within the NetSuite ecosystem and helps our partners reduce costs and realize faster ROI on new hires.
Accelerating Talent Development
NetSuite’s SuiteLife Campus curriculum is designed to deliver comprehensive accelerated learning so that successful graduates can transition quickly into co-lead roles on client projects. Participants will gain the foundational skills required to be a successful consultant while learning about NetSuite in a collaborative environment. Intended for recent graduates or career re-entrants with less than two years of experience, the six-week instructor-led course uses gamification, workshops, and hands-on case studies to teach students:
- Business Knowledge and Acumen: Students will gain business and industry fundamentals such as basic accounting principles and best practice approaches to KPIs.
- Consulting Skills: Students will develop soft skills to enhance client service expertise including presentation and conflict resolution that embody professionalism and help manage client relationships.
- Product Knowledge: Students will learn NetSuite product functionality, features, migration techniques, and configuration.
- SuiteSuccess Methodology: Students will gain foundational knowledge of NetSuite deployment methodology that helps optimize our customers’ implementations so they can realize the benefits of NetSuite faster.
The First ERP Vendor to Extend Campus Training to its Partner Community
SuiteLife Campus builds off NetSuite’s SuiteLife partner enablement program as well as NetSuite’s own proven internal campus associate curriculum, which has developed thousands of associate consultants worldwide. Our wholistic approach to developing candidates helps partners grow strong talent pipelines with NetSuite’s proven campus-to-consultant model.
SuiteLife Campus class sessions are now available in North America and Europe and will be extended to other regions in the coming year. The six-week course costs US$4,000 (approximately £3100 / €3500) per student.
