Calypso has introduced a certification programme to help boost the use of its software services.
The cloud-based financial services provider says it wants to make it easier for customers, employees and partners to level up their skills, allowing them to get the most out of the company’s cross-asset and front-to-back software products.
The Calypso Certification programme has been developed to address the gap between peoples’ level of expertise and the perennial regulatory and security changes of rapidly evolving capital markets.
The company says that because its software releases are becoming increasingly frequent, it is facing growing demand from customers for a way to maintain their technical skills, so that they can “maximise” their investment in the company’s platform.
Calypso says its modular, credit-based, three-tier certification program is available to its “ecosystem of partners, customers, independent consultants, and employees” in front and back office and technical roles.
Calypso’s chief customer officer Laurent Jacquemin says: “The certification initiative allows Calypso’s stakeholders to further leverage the pool of existing skilled resources whilst safe in the knowledge that they will not be compromising on quality.”
Dheeraj Nyati, Calypso’s director of services strategy, adds: “By ensuring that certified individuals implement, support, and maintain Calypso, clients can benefit from efficient implementation using best practices.”
Calypso has over 35,000 users in more than 60 countries, using its software across capital markets, investment management, central banking, clearing, treasury, liquidity, and collateral.
With certificates costing between $200 and $400, the company looks set to significantly boost its revenues thanks to this new optimisation programme.
