Gilbert, AZ – February 26, 2024 – Unicon, Inc., a leading learner-centric technology consulting firm, today announced the successful conclusion of its Migration Specialty Program with the Partner Acceleration Team at Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Having achieved the status of an AWS Public Sector Partner in 2016, Unicon seized the opportunity to partake in a specialty sprint process which allowed the company to work with AWS Partner Management resources in obtaining a specialization in AWS for migrations.
Looking toward the future, Unicon is actively pursuing the AWS Migration Competency for partners.
“Unicon was honored to be selected by AWS to participate in this migration specialty program,” said Unicon Director of Cloud Services/Principal Architect, Dave Mendez. “The program showed the commitment by AWS to Unicon in growing a partnership to help accelerate client adoption of AWS services. This allows Unicon to provide the latest tools and migration practices to our client applications that are looking to become reliable, secure, performant, and cost-effective inside of AWS.”
Over the span of 4 months, Unicon's Business Development and Cloud Services teams dedicated themselves to more than 40 hours of training and workshops. The Business Development team acquired AWS Partner: Migration Ambassador certifications, while the Cloud Services team received comprehensive training on migration solutions and AWS best practices.
“We are thrilled to have reached this new milestone in our partnership with Unicon,” said Partner Development Manager from Amazon Web Services, Kevin White. “Given their extensive history and trusted reputation in education technology, we look forward to extending AWS services to new customers in the Public Sector through Unicon, and helping them find success in their cloud migration journeys.”
This collaborative effort with the AWS team has not only strengthened Unicon's partnership with AWS but has also propelled the company's strategic initiatives within the Public Sector. Unicon remains committed to expanding its AWS Cloud practice, with a focus on delivering top-tier migration services to customers in higher education and edtech.
