FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

An HPE Training Credit welcome letter is sent to the person named as the owner or administrator once the Agreement has been set up. (Note that Training Credits ordered with HPE hardware will not be set up until the HPE hardware ships.) It is very important that the person who will monitor the usage of the account is named (along with a phone number and email) when the HPE Training Credit order is placed. Try to avoid providing the accounting office, for example, or a generic email address as the point of contact—this only causes confusion when we try to contact the actual account owner. If you are expecting an HPE Training Credit welcome letter, please check with the person who placed the order.
