The Citrix Technology Advocate (CTA) programme is designed to recognise people that have made a positive contribution to the Citrix Community. This year there are less than 70 members across the globe, and Ultima is one of them!
Demonstrated knowledge, passion and thought leadership
Our Technical Consultant Gareth Carson is a member of this exclusive group, where many criteria must be met. This is a very prestigious award selectively given out by Citrix.
CTA individuals tirelessly communicate their passion for Citrix technology. They spend countless hours sharing knowledge and connecting with community peers. Individuals use their own time and effort (non paid) to highlight issues, show innovative technology, work with vendors to improve products, help out on forums and test solutions.
They are a group of super-users who provide extraordinary social impact. Awardees have demonstrated technical knowledge, community passion and thought leadership that deserves recognition.
We asked Gareth to comment on his recent accomplishment:
"I am now working with individuals who are completely respected and looked up to by the community and Citrix , I am honoured to have this recognition."
Ultima, your trusted advisor
Being a CTA entitles awardees with significant benefits and knowledge, as well as a private support network of the top Citrix professionals around the globe. The programme provides CTAs with the latest innovative news and experience.
The award guarantees that the service and expertise we provide to our customers is second to none, reiterating that you can rely on Ultima as your trusted advisor.
To upkeep this status, Gareth must partake in a number of practices, including: Speaking at public Citrix Community events, participating in Peer to Peer calls with the Citrix Customer Advocacy Team and continually contributing content to the Citrix User Group Community (CUGC).
