Today EMC Elect Class of 2015 has been announced. I am delighted to say I have made the cut! This is not a Technical Certification but is a designation for that calendar year to acknowledge influence, participation, knowledge sharing and engagement with the EMC Community. The image below and the EMC Elect FAQ page can help clarify this even better.
The top 3 reasons the judges used for selection criteria were
- Regular engagement on the EMC Community Network
- Great conversations on Twitter
- Strong technical presence via blogs and at industry events
On my first blog post I mentioned that there was a bit of coaxing for me to get this blog off the ground. I had a call recently from Mark Browne to discuss EMC Elect and what it meant as well as discussions we had in EMC World last year around the community in general. I love our chats we discuss all sorts but during it I did acknowledge how a blog would really help my cause on getting unique content out “there” as well as a medium to expedite what I felt was lacking at the moment a local user forum and conduit for customers to find out whats good as well as feedback what is not! I will be consulting with EMC Elect colleagues initially and then seeking out assisting from “you”. Two main objectives will be to see is there an appetite for this and if so what content would benefit most.
I would like to thank the folk who nominated me and the judges who stuck their neck out in selecting me. The goal will be to not let you down and enhance the program with me being in it rather than out of it 😉
