Discounts for companies with certified employees

CheesyBread

I remember reading something somewhere that companies can get discounts on Cisco equipment for having Cisco certified personnel. I asked our Director of IT if he knew of anything like that and he said he didn't. I did some looking around and didn't find too much online. Does anybody have any clues as to where I could dig up some info on this?

I've often wondered what the actual discounts were. I know what you're talking about but I do not know the logistics of the whole thing. The more CCxx you have hired in your IT department, the greater the discounts on hardware and software and licensing. Or so I've heard.

Information can be found here: Partner with Cisco - Partner Central - Cisco Systems

AFAIK, that's the only way that the discount applies.
