For many partners, Extreme Partner Communities has long been a valuable place to connect, learn, and share expertise.   

Extreme Partner Communities is back by popular demand, evolved and expanded with new benefits, clearer ways to participate, and an additional community tier designed to recognize partners who go above and beyond. This evolution builds on what partners valued most, while creating even more opportunities to connect, grow, and lead together.

What is Extreme Partner Communities today?

This revitalized, partner-only program is shaped by partner feedback and designed for sales and technical professionals who want to deepen expertise, expand influence, and actively contribute to the broader Extreme Partner First™ network.   It brings together Champions, Heroes, and the newly introduced Ambassadors, connecting partners across regions and roles into a single, global space where knowledge is shared, best practices are exchanged, and contributions are recognized.

Built around what matters most to our partners

As we reintroduced and expanded Extreme Partner Communities, we designed the communities around the five core pillars that partners told us matter most: learning, collaboration, innovation, connection, and recognition.   

  • Learning: Gain the latest Extreme knowledge and insights to stay ahead of your peers and elevate customer conversations.  
  • Collaboration: Dedicated spaces to connect with peers, share best practices, and explore real-world partner use cases. 
  • Community & Mentorship: Opportunities to connect with Extreme leaders and experts, plus opportunities for mentorship and peer learning.  
  • Innovation: When available, exposure to early-stage initiatives and hands-on innovation activities.  
  • Events & Recognition: A mix of webinars, events, and avenues for recognition and incentives. 

Introducing the Ambassador community  

As part of this evolution, we’re introducing a new Ambassador community, an additional tier designed to recognize standout contributors from within the Champion and Hero communities.  

Ambassadors represent partners who consistently demonstrate leadership, advocacy, and meaningful impact. Selected through nominations by Community Captains within the Champions and Heroes Communities, Ambassadors help grow the community, share expertise, and elevate Extreme in the market. This new tier creates a clear path for partners who want to deepen their involvement, visibility, and influence within the tiered communities.
