Shut down of HP learning websites
On 20 October, HP will shut down the existing learning systems in preparation for the launch of “The Learning Center�, a new system that will make it easier for you to access training and certification information. This transition will impact you as an HP Certified Professional or as a user accessing information through the HP Certified Professional website (www.hp.com/go/certification/ap) and the Asia Pacific Partner Academy (www.hp.com/go/appa) .
Blackout Period: 20 Oct to 7 Nov’08
During the blackout period, you shall not be able to access your certification history and/ or register for any learning tracks online.
- If you have a valid HP Student ID you will still be able to register for courses, take exams at Prometric and launch web based training content. Please note, transaction records profile data, and awarding of certifications, will NOT be updated in the new learning management system, until the new Learning Management System scheduled to go LIVE on 7th November 2008.
- Registration for training process will be done manually. You will find details on how to register for a class in our standard electronic direct mailer invitations. You will also be able to register for a class via e-mail, fax or telephone.
Meanwhile, please continue to engage in Asia Pacific Partner Learning activities, and know that your accomplishments will be recorded and visible when ”The Learning Center” launches.
Please note:
We are NOT able to accept any new students during this transition period. Please make sure you can provide your local Authorized Training Center (ATC) with your HP Student ID to ensure your training attendance is captured.  This manual process however, does not allow us to accept “walk-in students�, so please ensure you signup with your local ATC at least 1 day prior to the scheduled training.
Access training and certification information will come easier with improved version of new website. Should you encounter any problems with your sign-on, please email to premium.support@hp.com.
On behalf of HP Asia Pacific Partner Learning, we thank you for your support as we continue to improve our partner learning services.
Best regards
