Networking Training Creates IT Experts for Town of Kungsbacka, Sweden

Overview The town of Kungsbacka shares a challenge with many other municipalities in Sweden. That is, to solve big problems with small resources and, at the same time, be an attractive employer. Information technology is one area in particular that benefits from many resources in order to recruit top talent. The town risks losing its edge on being an attractive IT employer without developing the competencies of its employees, however. To meet this challenge, the town of Kungsbacka began a search for an IT training partner with whom they could establish a long-term relationship and create good conditions for winning solutions. The town of Kungsbacka finally chose Global Knowledge, a worldwide leader in IT education and enterprise training solutions that could fulfill these requirements.
