• Are you ready to add Linux to your business? 
• Do your employees have the skill sets they need? 
• How will you get everyone trained in time? 
• Should you use self guided books or bring in a vendor class or send each person out to public classes? 

I can help evaluate your needs and help you design a training plan for your situation.  I spent seven years working in a large support organization, first as a technician, then in the training department creating and delivering courses for new products. Both positions required me to be involved in the planning of course delivery including:

• Deciding which technicians needed what training.  
• Prioritizing the needs of the students, departments, and customers.  
• Choosing self study, in house, and outside training options.
• Evaluating new materials. 
• Recommending long term professional development plans. 

Since that time, I have continuously assisted clients and students with choosing the right courses, in the right order for their needs, and in some case, helping them make suggestions to colleagues for additional training.

I have 15 years of experience with a variety of network and operating system certification programs.  I have taken exams, evaluated pilot exams, and written exam questions and scenarios. I have developed and delivered training designed to teach the same objectives as certification exams and I have recommended training programs for those interested in professional certifications.
