A Microsoft Gold-Certified partner is a company that has agreed to collaborate and establish a close working relationship with Microsoft. Having this title means that DCSL GuideSmiths has earned the highest standards of Microsoft's widely-recognised partnership program.
Competencies are used to demonstrate an organisation’s technical capability to deliver Microsoft solutions. Employees must undergo hundreds of hours of study and pass a number of exams in order for their organisation to achieve competencies and partnership status.
We actively encourage all of our developers to become certified and help them to do so by paying for their training and exam fees, as well as giving them time off to sit their exams. As a result, we have been able to continue raising the skill level overall in the business, instilling confidence in our teams – and in our customers.
