The Vantage Story After experiencing the shortfall of talent within the technology industry – which was limiting business growth – Vantage Academy sponsor and award-winning CRM provider Cloud9 Insight started investing in apprenticeships to support development of new talent for the business. Following outstanding success, we embarked on launching our own apprenticeship academy. Our purpose Our ambition to help experienced people, as well as school and university leavers, attain skills and qualifications in the tech sector that will accelerate their career success. At the same time, we have sought to grow the untapped pool of talent that will become the future of tech. We specialise in creating programmes that enhance an individual’s technical development and education, and Vantage has been working to extend the community with our Microsoft partners to develop an apprenticeship programme that will deliver to the industry level that Cloud9 has a reputation for producing. Based in Brighton on the south coast, Cloud9 Insight has outstanding talent to support Vantage Academy’s programme, as a proven centre of excellence for Microsoft Dynamics and continually helps employees grow through knowledge sharing, learning and further qualifications.
