Bolstering partner enablement and training resources

To support its updated engagement model, Red Hat is investing in making resources, expertise and open
source solutions more accessible to partners to help them operate more seamlessly with customers. In
addition to continuous improvements to partner certification and credential pathways on the Red Hat

Partner Training Portal, and expanded visibility for co-created solutions in the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog,
Red Hat is offering partners a platform for on-demand product demonstrations, including step-by-step
instructions and talking points for customers.

Red Hat Demo Platform, which will be made available through Red Hat Partner Connect, will provide
product demos that span the entire Red Hat portfolio for partners to showcase open source innovations

with customers in a low-risk environment. The platform includes multi-product demos and fully scripted
workshops that can be used to deliver one- or two-day experiences for customers. Red Hat Demo Platform
will also grant participating partners early access to demos of new product releases ahead of general
availability.

Red Hat Partner Connect offers a single destination for new and current Red Hat partners to access these
new enhancements and all of Red Hat’s tools and resources to drive greater customer value and partner

profitability. Red Hat Partner Connect makes it simple for partners to register and log into the partner portal
to gain immediate access to the tools they need to build their business with Red Hat.
