I was lucky enough to attend E Vault training run by Chris,
Technical training is usually a pretty “dry” endeavour, but Chris’ enthusiasm, coupled with his intimate knowledge of the E-Vault Platform (now Carbonite Backup) resulted in a very enjoyable training regime.
Whilst Chris could be said to have deviated quite heavily from an approach of teaching to “pass the exam” – the roundabouts and backwaters we traversed filled in more gaps and provided much more practical training in how to actually use, manage and troubleshoot the product more effectively than, what might be considered a more direct route, through the training manual…
Entertaining, effortlessly engaging, and enthusiastically committed, I would highly recommend Chris as a technical trainer – oh, and he has also managed to build a most impressive “Castle Greyskull” within Minecraft, viewable on YouTube (complete with theme tune) – which would further validate his “geek credentials” to any pre millennials out there looking for a 1st class trainer…
