“We congratulate our PartnerConnect Consulting partners who have achieved Guidewire specializations in the second quarter,” said Lisa Walsh, vice president, Consulting Partner Alliances, Guidewire Software. “Our PartnerConnect Consulting partners are world-class leaders in their respective fields and we are pleased to recognize them for their expertise and competency in helping our shared insurance customers transform their businesses with Guidewire products and solutions.”
Specializations are both regionally and globally based and require partners to demonstrate skills, knowledge, and competency in a specific Guidewire product or solution, 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 specific 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.

*The Global Delivery designation recognizes partners that have a large investment in the Guidewire practice, meet the skills requirements from a global perspective (not in region) and continue to meet the minimum number of references in region.
