To earn a Microsoft AEP authorization, partners must complete a test to prove their level of academic licensing and market expertise.

“This Microsoft AEP authorization shows our commitment and specialism in the academic IT marketplace and demonstrates our knowledge of Microsoft and its academic products,” said Rick Hagan, Ident-A-Kid CEO “We hope to accelerate our K12 school customers’ successes by serving as technology advisors for their IT requirements.”
