Knowledge and avodaq, two award-winning Cisco Learning Solutions
Partners announce the availability of an exclusive training course

“Not only do we train on the latest in advanced UC and
collaboration technologies,” said Robert Schaffner, avodaq Vice
President, “through our partnership with Global Knowledge, we can
also provide training in convenient locations for our customers –
two significant benefits for Cisco product users.”
The alliance between Global Knowledge and avodaq was formed in
February 2009 in response to growing market opportunities and
changing customer requirements particularly in the areas of Cisco
advanced unified communications products, including video and
