Cosell Operations Service for Skilling (AskSkilling)

The Co-sell Operations Service for Skilling is a new service where partners can submit skilling related questions to our agents. The agents will respond within 24 hours.

This service helps partners understand the skilling offers available to them in their area and ensures they have the resources they need to build skilling capacity and capability.

You’re invited to join the upcoming Office Hours to learn more about this new skilling service. During these sessions our team will review the Partner Skilling Playbook, review the H2 skilling events calendar and answer any skilling questions you may have.

Please find below the schedule for sessions based on your time zone:
June 11, 2025 | Asia 1:00 PM IST | EMEA 9:30 AM BST | Americas 10:00 AM PDT

These sessions are scheduled for the 2nd Wednesday of every month.
