Instructor's Courses"Online training can be effective and enjoyable if the trainer is passionate, innovative, efficient, and treats every learner like a valued friend."
Jacob has spent roughly twenty years building a skill set that includes networking technologies, server management elements, database and web design and implementation, and yes, even a little scripting and coding from time to time. He's taught in live classrooms, seminar halls, via webcams, and has been recorded for posterity. In his heart of hearts, Jacob is a teacher, trainer, mentor, and guide who realized this back in the fourth grade when he took his first computer class from a nice lady down the street. Jacob learned everything she had to offer a fourth grader, but he didn't leave because he wanted to help the other kids who were there. That became Jacob's first paid computer training job and the birthplace of his calling.
