The 3Com Focus Partner Program provides 3Com partners the tools, support, resources and training to expand market reach, and access to new market leading technologies and solutions to maximize profitability and foster growth.

As partners increase their commitment to 3Com by becoming Specialized, achieving certifications, and other important business expanding initiatives, their overall recognition within the Focus Partner Program increases.

An objective points-based-system provides a transparent framework where partners can measure their abilities and advance within the program. 3Com partners achieve a level in the Focus Partner Program — Gold, Silver, Bronze and Registered — by completing a business plan and earning points in three areas: Achieving Specializations, Delivering/Reselling Services, and Revenue Performance.
