I do a lot of work with Software Education and I can vouch for them as an excellent group to work with.
So I thought it would be worth mentioning that they are looking for a new trainer to deliver a range of courses in agile development. You will need to be charismatic, experienced and good at dealing with the reality of projects rather than just the theory. The charisma is particularly important because the rest of us trainers look like we have been hired for our experience rather than any soap opera like good looks 🙂

If you get a job there and love it then you owe me a coffee. If you hate it then its not my fault, I just typed in a link to some random site and you should have done more research. On the other hand if you miss out on or don’t follow up on the role then it will have been great.
Similarly if you start work with Software Education and it all goes really well then tell them that you found them through me and I deserve kudos by association. But if you suck at facilitating and helping participants learn, then tell them your name is Geovanni McKetchup and that you have never heard of James King.
On a slightly serious note though, if you are considering training or consulting and do have some practical experience, then they are a great bunch to work with. Contact me if you want more of a briefing on their style and what it is like working with them.
