I have worked in the IT industry since 1983. I started my career as a Software Developer and in 1988 moved into Testing as a Test Analyst and then as a Test Manager. My passion is to enthuse, excite and inspire people in the area of software testing through the training and motivational presentations that I provide.

Since 1999 I have worked as a software test consultant and trainer delivering a variety of courses, workshops, presentations and consultancy assignments.

With the numerous ISTQB syllabi available and the significant changes being made to many of the syllabi, I have decided to concentrate only on the ISTQB Foundation qualification, which proves to still be very popular.

Since the pandemic I have also made a strategic decision not to travel and so all of my classes and presentation are now virtual. I call this my "glide path" to retirement.

I am pleased to announce that I will be presenting at this year's EuroSTAR conference which will be held in Oslo, Norway 15-18 June 2026. My session is a new topic entitled "If I could turn back time, things I would do differently as a tester and test manager". Please check this out (as well as the rest of the programme) at the EuroSTAR website. This is my first "in person" presentation since Covid and it would be great to see you there.

My next ISTQB Foundation course (CTFL) is scheduled to take place 5 - 7 May 2026. If you would like to book a place on this course then please contact me.
Virtual Courses
All my courses are now "virtual" courses. You are able to take the course either in the comfort of your own home or if you prefer with your colleagues in your own offices. The virtual courses are conducted using MS Teams.

If you are interested in any of these then please contact me.
