Equally impressive are Prudential's approach and commitment to employee education, which depend heavily on Sun Educational Services to keep staff current on the latest technologies. During the past year, hundreds of IT employees at Prudential have received training through Sun Educational Services. In addition to Java technology training, many IT staff attend system administration classes that present strategies for effectively managing Prudential's Sun-based networks. The company relies on the consistency and quality of Sun's nationwide network of education centers to help ensure the same level of training is available to all its employees. With Sun Educational Services, we have that assurance because their instructors thoroughly understand the technology.
Prudential employees can access a complete listing of technology classes via the corporate intranet.
If employees want to sign up for classes, they simply submit their request online for processing. If an entire department needs training, the company might opt to have Sun Educational Services develop a series of classes that can be presented on-site. If only a few employees need training, they can attend one of the Sun Education Centers in their area. Back to Top World-class solutions with Sun Java Technology Prudential's close relationship with Sun Educational Services grew largely out of the realization that using outside vendors would better enable the company to use technology to enhance operations and meet its business goals. It also sends an important message to our employees that we value them and the training they receive, '' explains Dellisante.
