“Congratulations to our most recent group of PartnerConnect\_Consulting\_partners to achieve Guidewire specializations through their demonstrated services and expertise,” said Lisa Walsh, vice president, Alliances, Guidewire Software. “We are extremely pleased to recognize our partners’ commitment to providing our joint insurance customers the high caliber of service that they deserve.”

Specializations are both regionally and globally based and require partners to demonstrate skills, knowledge, and competency in a specific Guidewire product, as validated by Guidewire certification achievements.
