Technology Asset Management Training & Professional Development
The Network offers the following competitive* professional development programs:
 *"Competitive" - The core certificated programs listed here are compatible with, yet most frequently exceed in content and value, a majority of programs available on the market today. There are enormous differences between credentials developed and supported by The Institute and the certifications you may be used to. We do not stop at the end of the course - our credentials deliver ongoing professional growth potential that puts you well ahead of anyone in this industry. Want to know why it's important? Drop us a note and we'll explain.
Talk about "green" - We'll bring the training to you...
Most frequently, we deliver our training at your enterprise site of choice and we guarantee that you will achieve results or your money will be refunded. No games and no compromises on the value of the knowledge we put in your hands.
Unique in our industry: We are completely supplier neutral!
Please understand that all of our programs and materials are 100% supplier-neutral--no ads; no partnerships; no sponsors, no product- or service-centric methodologies. You get the information you need to help cut technology costs while increasing the delivered value of related goods and services--without enduring distracting vendor sales hype.

We represent the interests of the business technology consumer and we serve as their voice in matters of technology rights and responsibilities.

Within this web site, you will find answers to literally hundreds of questions that have been asked by the people who attend our programs--and answered by our experts. You'll get strategic and tactical data on how to get the most for your money while minimizing risks and maximizing ROI. That information exceeds 400 pages and is growing on a daily basis. The data is subdivided as follows:
  • Blog - No-holds-barred portfolio management observations by Alan L. Plastow, Founder. (Al also blogs on the site you are currently viewing.)
  • Software Piracy - Strategic information covering the issues of copyright non compliance (frequently mis-labeled "software piracy" by the software industry).
  • Software Asset Management - SAM - Strategies, tactics, and information on how your enterprise will save money on software-related goods and services while optimizing your ROIC.
  • Training - Updates and information regarding our training programs. Many include Workbooks, basic assignments, and content-rich slides.
  • Technology Asset Management - TAM / ITAM - Strategies, tactics, and information on how your enterprise will save money on technology systems-related goods and services while optimizing your ROIC.
  • Negotiations - Strategies, tactics, and information on how your personnel can negotiate more effective--mutually beneficial--licenses and agreements.
  • Project Management - Our custom project management programs are so good that they are being delivered at The University of Akron, in Akron, Ohio, U.S.A.
Let's face financial facts: Either your company is directly and actively involved in proactive technology asset management--portfolio management--and you are getting the best value for your IT investment. Or... You are not effectively managing your IT assets and you are most likely hemorrhaging as much as $13 of every $14 that filter through the IT budget (You are also exposed to massive punitive costs due to license non-compliance audit activities.)
Please don't ask us to be politically correct in our approach to serving you. We deliver value. We're not here to message delicate egos.
There is no half way.  The is no "silver bullet" cure--no magic standard, service, or product. The results you will get will come about because your entire enterprise commits to improving the processes that drive technology portfolio management.
