Andy Muskett: Xerox provides our partners with a rich pool of learning resources. We appreciate that the content needs to cover a wide range of job roles and be delivered in a way that suits the candidates’ learning styles and availability. A multi-channelled approach to training is offered; ondemand online training is great for those with limited availability, whilst on-site workshops are available to those who prefer a more interactive, hands‑on approach. A recent example is our four-day analyst training course at one of our UK training centres. It provided the ideal platform for attendees to build relationships with their peers and develop knowledge and skills in various subjects, including MPS analytics, environmental and sustainability reporting, security solutions, AI-driven workflow automation and apps. Armed with this new knowledge, they find it much easier to spot opportunities for improving productivity, increasing security, and reducing environmental impact for their clients. www.konicaminolta.co.uk www.lexmark.co.uk www.carbon-group.co.uk www.utax.co.uk www.ricoh.co.uk www.sharp.co.uk www.evolvedocumentsolutions.co.uk www.commercebusinesssystems.co.uk www.xerox.co.uk Shaun Wilkinson: Our team offers hands-on assistance with integrating AI-based solutions, making sure they align with our customers’ goals.
