Hello and thank you for looking at my profile with the view to becoming one of my students from the comfort of your own home. I was born in England in 1961, went to a secondary school until the age of 16 and then onto Technical College for a further year to enhance the school qualifications I already achieved. Before leaving college I gained employment in an engineering company as an apprentice draughtsman and, on a part time basis, continued to study structural engineering at the same Technical College for a further 4 years, completing my Ordinary Certificate and Higher Certificates in Structural Engineering. Over the 45 years of an engineering career, I have been fortunate enough to secure many job functions from those early days as a draughtsman to Technical Directorship and in almost as many engineering disciplines from structural engineering, colliery mining equipment, fire extinguishers to Oil and Gas equipment.

Throughout my career, I have continually fed my thirst for knowledge and continual professional development by enrolling for various academic and professional courses all at part time and all distance learning including my Bachelors degree, Performance Coaching, Life Coaching, Business Excellence and so on. The culmination of my efforts being the achievement of securing the title of Chartered Engineer and Fellow of the Engineering Institute for which I am still a member. In 2005, I decided that I wanted to teach the knowledge I had gained in my field of engineering to others. Amazingly, nearly 30 years from when I started at Technical College, I began lecturing at that very same college as a part time visiting lecturer; what goes around, comes around as the saying goes. From then on, I was hooked on teaching and in my various full time engineering roles began playing significant parts in the mentoring and training of junior and apprentice engineers. So this is now where, I hope, you will come on board for a new learning adventure with me. If you have a ...
