Adobe Certified Design and media Instructor

Training is a job I enjoy and involves many tasks: creating engaging course content and adapting the learning to suit the individual learners needs and requirements. All my training has a focus on practical projects with time for delegates to practice techniques so ensuring a higher retention of information. Some of the organisation I have undertaken training for include: NHS, BUPA, Ikea, police force, army, Canon, councils, and universities. I trained and worked for many years as a technical illustrator in England and Germany creating illustrations for companies such as Ford, Opal, George
