Timmy wrote:Hi Android Enterprise community !
As an IT professional with focus on securing and managing different types of devices for customers all over the world, its important to keep up with the changing landscape and be on top of whats going on in the different ecosystems that exist out there. In this post I want to highlight 3 things that I think has had the greatest impact for me and my customers and that I would recommend anyone working within this field to keep an eye on.
Android Enterprise Community discussions highlights
There have been a lot of great conversations in this community for the past year and I wanted to mention a few that stood out for me and the impact of the community. I'm a strong believer in that whats makes a great product is also the community around it. Being able to interact directly between users using the product, developers and Program Managers working on the product makes the product better.

Android Enterprise Academy

One of the best resources I've encountered in my path to learn and understand what Android Enterprise is from a conceptual perspective to more in-depth technical is without a doubt the free training and certificate program under Android Enterprise Academy.
There are 3 levels of certificationAssociate
Professional
ExpertI keep going back to the training from time to time when I need to refresh my memory and I can't say that about a lot of other trainings I've done through out my years. That to me shows how good the quality of the training is. For me who has in the past created a lot of training material and also taught technical classes its important to understand that people are different in how they learn and are able to process information and I find that the training offered here manage to address that with the confinement of online training.
Developer documentation
3rd but not least, I want to highlight to the developer documentation. I'm an IT Professional but not a developer, however this has not stopped me from getting value from the developer documentation.
https://developers.google.com/android/work/tools
https://developers.google.com/zero-touch/guides/overviewWhen it comes to Android Enterprise I have found myself many times going to the developer documentation to understand certain features and in what version of Android they were introduced or trying to understand what is needed to use the features in troubleshooting purposes. Maybe there's a need to create a service request or Incident to your EMM or directly to Google, adding information that could help that points to the documentation is often valuable information that could expedite the handling of the ticket.
Are there any discussion that stands out for you ? Or do you have any tips or great resources you want to share ?
I want to give a special thanks to Lizzie for all the great work she does here and all the other community members that takes part in the discussions here.Timmy Andersson
