Why MSP Partners Value the Included LMS
The training catalog is not a giveaway thrown in to pad the value column. For Tier 1, 3, and 4 partners, it is one of the highest-leverage benefits in the program. Here is what your MSP actually gets when 25 technicians ride your team license through the catalog.
Five Reasons MSP Owners Tell Us the LMS Bundle Pays for Itself
Petronella's training catalog is built and taught by the same engineers who run live CMMC, HIPAA, and forensics engagements. RPO-1449 credentialed, PPSB accredited, and aligned with the same control libraries and methodologies your downstream clients are getting audited against.
1 - Train the team you already have
Your 5 to 25 technicians can take the CMMC 2.0 Bootcamp, the 39-Layer Cybersecurity Framework, the HIPAA Mastery CE, and the Mastering UniFi course on the same calendar week your downstream client signs the engagement letter. No per-seat charge, no annual subscription math, no Cybrary purchase order.
2 - Resell certifications you actually earned
When your client asks "does your team know CMMC Level 2?", your answer is now "every technician has a Petronella CMMC 2.0 Bootcamp completion certificate, dated within the last 12 months, signed by an RPO-1449 instructor." That is a direct competitive advantage against commodity MSPs whose only training credential is a manufacturer's $99 sales-enablement course.
3 - Add staff-training proof to CMMC project deliverables
AT.L2-3.2.2 (role-based training) shows up on every CMMC Level 2 SSP your team is going to author for downstream clients. When you can attach your own team's PPSB-coded completion certificates to the deliverable as evidence-of-instructor-competency, the client's C3PAO does not blink. When you cannot, the C3PAO asks awkward questions.
4 - Differentiate against commodity competitors
Your competition is selling commodity Microsoft 365 management at $89/seat. You are selling regulated-vertical engineering with a documented training pipeline, an RPO co-signature pathway, and a forensics retainer add-on. The training catalog is one of the cheapest credibility levers in the program; your sales conversation gets harder if you do not lean on it.
5 - Onboard new technicians in 90 days, not 18 months
New hire's first 90 days inside an MSP usually go to shadow-engagements and trial-by-fire. With the LMS bundle, the same 90 days can include the full 39-Layer Cybersecurity Framework, the CMMC 2.0 Bootcamp, and the AI and Automation Bootcamp. Your new tech is closing tickets in regulated client environments by month 4 instead of month 18.
6 - Stay current with quarterly course releases
We publish 2 to 4 new courses per quarter. Active partners get the additions automatically. Recent releases include Claude Code Mastery, Private AI for Compliance Automation, and Mobile Device Forensics CE. Your team's curriculum stays aligned with where the threat landscape is moving, not where it was when you bought a 3-year SaaS subscription.
Per-Learner Math at a 25-Technician Shop
| Catalog list value | $13,914 |
| Tier 1 MSP Stack annual cost (with 2 months free) | $19,970 |
| Per-technician training cost across 25 seats | $799/yr |
| Equivalent monthly per-tech LMS-only cost | From $67/tech/mo |
| For comparison: Cybrary single seat | From $59/tech/mo (no PPSB CE, no CMMC depth) |
| For comparison: Pluralsight individual | From $29/tech/mo (no PPSB CE, no CMMC depth) |
| Tier 1 MSP Stack effective LMS-equivalent value alone | From $20K/yr |
Per-tech math allocates the entire Tier 1 annual cost to LMS for comparison purposes only - the program also includes Deal Desk, template library, Circle.so, n8n automation, and monthly Craig Q&A. The actual marginal cost of LMS access alone is substantially lower. Cybrary and Pluralsight prices are publicly listed at the platforms cited, accurate as of 2026-05-04.
Tier 2 Fleet Prototyping - Sub-Tier Pricing
All prototyping tiers include a working prototype, architecture document, and compliance memo. Each tier adds scope. All fees non-refundable. Scarcity is real: fleet concurrency and CMMC-RP engineer availability cap the program at 5-6 prototyping engagements per year.
| Sub-Tier | Price | Duration | What You Get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Private AI PoC Lite | $35,000 | 2-3 weeks | Single use case. Petronella-hosted only. Hello-world + architecture document. No handoff. |
| MSP Fleet Prototype | Starting at $50,000 | 4-6 weeks | Working prototype, runbook, architecture doc, MSP handoff, workload profile, BOM for hardware procurement, managed-service recommendation. |
| Compliance-Aware MSP Prototype | $75,000 | 4-6 weeks | Everything in Fleet Prototype plus CMMC L2 / HIPAA / NIST 800-171 mapping, SSP artifacts, audit evidence package. |
| Production-Ready MSP Prototype | From $125,000 | 6-8 weeks | Everything in Compliance-Aware plus signed migration guarantee, 90-day post-handoff support, embedded CMMC-RP on your Slack. Inquiry-only. |
Tier 4 Strategic Partnership - Three Options
Application-only. Three concurrent clients maximum. Choose the structure that fits your growth posture. All options include full Petronella capability stack delivered by the team, not Craig.
| Option | Structure | Minimum Term |
|---|---|---|
| Option A - Retainer Only | From $35,000/mo flat | 12 months |
| Option B - Retainer + Rev-Share (default) | From $25,000/mo + 12% net-new attributable revenue | 12 months, 24-month attribution |
| Option C - Equity (pre-exit only) | $30,000/mo + 0.5-2% profit-interest or success bonus | 12 months, both-sides attorneys required |
Private Sessions With Craig - Available Cross-Tier
Pre-qualified and pre-paid only. Craig opens availability manually when schedule allows. No standing quota. Available to any active Petronella partner or qualified outside buyer who completes the application process. Tier 4 clients receive priority scheduling.
All sessions include a team-drafted 48-hour follow-up with written summary, action plan, and resource packet. Booking through Private Session details.
Which Tier Is Right for You?
Answer these questions to find your starting point. Remember: tiers are independent. Start where you are and add services as client engagements demand.
Do you need compliance curriculum and templates to train your team?
You have regulated clients (or want to chase them) but no CMMC-RP on staff. You need frameworks, not consulting hours. The Stack tier includes the full Petronella training catalog for your whole team plus the template library and Deal Desk.
Do you have a specific client deal that needs private AI or compliance infrastructure?
You have the deal in your pipeline today. You need prototyping, a BOM, and a deployment plan - not curriculum. Add a Tier 1 Stack alongside if your team also wants the LMS catalog.
Is your client buying corporate cohort training, not consulting hours?
If your downstream client wants live cohort cybersecurity training for their 5 to 25 person team (CMMC AT-3, HIPAA, role-based curriculum), the right path is our corporate cohort program at From $5,000/mo. You can resell with margin or refer for a finder's fee. Contact us about wholesale terms.
Are you a $3M+ MSP owner looking for peer caliber and strategic counsel?
You are already profitable and want a cohort of regulated-MSP peers, benchmarking data, and quarterly Craig access. Council includes the LMS catalog plus all Stack-tier materials.
Are you scaling past $8M and exploring M&A, exit readiness, or aggressive regulated-market expansion?
You need a strategic partner with skin in the game, not another consultant billing hourly. Revenue-share alignment matters. Strategic includes the LMS catalog, DFE forensics retainer, and Named CMMC-RP co-signing.
