13 June 2006

ExitCertified Corporation of Ottawa, Canada, is pleased to announce that they have been selected by MySQL AB to be the first Authorized MySQL Education Center (AMEC) partner for Canada, offering certified MySQL education across the country. Courses will be offered on MySQL 5.0, the latest version of the world’s most popular open source database.

“The addition of the MySQL educational partnership further enhances our position in the Canadian market place as the primary provider of authorized enterprise product training,” says Tim Mabey, Co-CEO of ExitCertified Corporation. “MySQL training is a perfect complement to our existing vendor partners, allowing us to further expand into the growing open source market.”

“ExitCertified Corporation has earned the reputation of being one of the premier delivery partners for authorized education in North America,” said Marc Sodano, MySQL AB’s director of training services. “Their experience with vendor-authorized training, and their physical presence with centers in every major Canadian city make them an ideal choice to service the explosive interest in MySQL.”

The Authorized MySQL Education Center (AMEC) program was created to meet the increased global demand for training on MySQL, the world's most popular open source database. The AMEC program will expand the availability of quality MySQL training into regions of the world which have previously been underserved; and allow customers in such areas access to MySQL-developed courseware and authorized MySQL instructors. AMEC partners are enabled to sell all MySQL training solutions, and deliver authorized MySQL courses. Customers who receive training via AMEC partners will enjoy the high standard of excellence that they have come to expect from MySQL.
