Program Participation

The ATP Program is an invitation-only program. To participate in the ATP Program, you must already possess relevant job, industry, and market credentials in the ATP technology. Before engaging with potential ATP partners, a Cisco sponsor or channel account manager (CAM) must proceed to the ATP Instruction Page for nomination, approval, and partner invitation instructions. You should take the following steps:

1. Read the requirements for participation in the ATP Program.
2. If identified as a participating partner/provider, complete the Cisco ATP application and review it with your CAM. If you meet all criteria, your CAM will submit a request for invitation to the ATP Theater Lead contact. Note: filling out an application does not guarantee an invitation.
3. Once invited, download the audit checklist and use it to track completion of program requirements.
