The partner is not required to complete training for the entire competency and its multiple specialisations.

Such amounts may include: (i) sales or license revenues for Dell hardware or software purchased from a third party; (ii) sales or license revenues or other fees from the partner’s sale of services, including without limitation support and maintenance services; (iii) sales or license revenues for which the partner is not the seller or licensor of record (referral fee amounts); or (iv) sales or license revenues for Dell hardware or software purchased for Partner’s own use, including without limitation service provider fees. For the sake of clarity, Subsection (i) above does not apply to Wyse or SonicWALL partners who have received written notice from Dell to the contrary. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are in USD$.
