Exclusive Networks’ Education Services for Palo Alto Networks, Expands Multi-Lingual Training Across Europe with New Certified Instructors –
Belgium, Netherlands, and Adriatic Region Gain Enhanced Cybersecurity Education in Local Languages

Boulogne-Billancourt, France – November 7th, 2024 – Exclusive Networks’ education services, a leader in cybersecurity training, today announced the expansion of its multilingual education services across Europe by certifying new instructors under the Palo Alto Networks Certified Security Platform Instructor (PCSPI) program. This milestone enables Exclusive Networks to offer high-quality, local language training in Belgium, the Netherlands, and the Adriatic region, meeting the unique cybersecurity needs of each area.

The prestigious PCSPI credential, a mark of excellence within Palo Alto Networks’ Authorized Partner Program, is awarded to individuals who demonstrate advanced technical expertise, classroom management, and engagement skills. This qualification requires instructors to hold valid PCNSA and PCNSE credentials and successfully complete the rigorous Instructor Certification Workshop. Now, Kenneth Van Velthoven from Exclusive Networks Belgium and Antonio Zunic from Exclusive Networks Croatia have both achieved this certification, allowing delivery of training in Dutch, Croatian, and other regional languages, enhancing its reach and impact in local markets.

With this new certification, Kenneth Van Velthoven is now equipped to deliver Palo Alto Networks’ courses in Belgium and the Netherlands. His addition to the teaching roster further strengthens Exclusive Networks’ presence in Northern Europe, addressing a growing demand for localised cybersecurity expertise and providing partners with a tailored learning experience.

“Our instructors’ deep, practical experience and local knowledge set us apart,” said Lars Meyer, Head of Palo Alto Networks Training at Exclusive Networks.

“Kenneth and Antonio’s certification represents a significant step forward in delivering real-world, local-language training, helping partners and customers gain critical cybersecurity skills directly applicable to their regions.”

Antonio Zunic has already delivered two highly rated classes in the Adriatic region, receiving top marks for instructor knowledge, presentation, and classroom engagement—a rare accomplishment for a newly certified instructor. His success speaks to the extensive expertise and hands-on experience that Exclusive Networks’ instructors bring to the classroom, cultivated through their daily roles as security consultants for Palo Alto Networks solutions.

With a strong focus on regional needs, Exclusive Networks’ multi-lingual expansion in cybersecurity education ensures that organisations across Europe receive cutting-edge training that reflects their local context. By bridging language and expertise gaps, Exclusive Networks is helping businesses across Europe enhance their cybersecurity posture, equipping them with skills for a safer digital future.
