Instructor's Courses

I really enjoy teaching someone a topic that was difficult for me to learn so they don’t have to go through the same pain that I did while learning that topic.

James brings more than 30 years of IT experience to his training. He got his start in IT volunteering for a nonprofit and becoming their defacto IT pro — while using an MS-DOS portable computer. Before joining CBT Nuggets, James did freelance IT work, and wrote and reviewed technical books. His hobbies include photography, hiking, and traveling, especially to Eastern Europe and Russia.
