Welcome Citrix Technology Professional (CTP) Class of 2016!

Wow! It's hard to believe that a whole year has passed since I was honored by being elected to the CTP Class of 2015. I am also thrilled to have been re-accepted to the program for 2016. It’s been a fantastic year!

What is the CTP Program?

For those who may not be aware, the CTP Program is a group of only 50 individuals worldwide who have invested a significant amount of time and resources to become experts in Citrix products and solutions. The wealth of knowledge they have developed - and more importantly, openly shared - has proven invaluable to the Citrix technology community.  They have consistently demonstrated their real-world knowledge by:

• Sharing insights (blogging) on web sites and contributing to online discussions (e.g. Citrix forums, Citrix Developer Network)
• Sharing ideas and code with the Citrix developer community
• Creating or fostering communities of Citrix users (e.g. CUGC)
• Publishing technical documentation, articles, or books
• Offering technical expertise in the field
• Speaking at IT conferences

CTP members engage with Citrix product teams via in-person meetings and private webinars for detailed discussions on current technologies and product roadmaps. They help shape the future of Citrix technologies by providing valuable input on business needs and feedback on product strategy.

We are proud to welcome the CTP Class of 2016 to the group:

By their continued contributions to the Citrix community, each of the above has proven that they are deserving of the CTP designation. 

Congratulations to the new awardees, as well as to all the CTP members.

CTP accomplishments are reviewed annually, and are evaluated based on recent community contributions. If you have what it takes, I encourage you to apply for the program. You can review benefits and eligibility here:
