As MCTs, we are often asked by training providers to sign contracts or agreements (there is a MCT agreement after all...). Do they protect us (rarely...) or the training provider (always...) Can we negotiate them? What is fair or not? What is the legal basis? In this session we will discuss the typical contracts that are submitted to us, how to negotiate them and the risks they entail or protect us from.
Delivered at the European 2024 MCT Summit.
Marc is a typical specimen of an “Alpine Geek” (Nerdus Alpinus), having delivered courses in two languages and multiple countries for over 25 years, but living in a three-hundred year old chalet in the Swiss Alps that only got broadband Internet in 2009. He works with Microsoft subsidiaries, particularly around Partner Readiness, presents at various Microsoft conferences (TechED, TechDays, MCT Summits) and was the longest-serving member of the MCT Advisory Council. He currently serves the Microsoft Certified Trainer community as the MCT Regional Lead for Switzerland.
