I am a resolute advocate in training individuals within the organization and I have devised and implemented a number of training seminars in my career, with outstanding results.

I am pleased to convey that, with the systems that I created, they have all attained ISO 9001 certification in a matter of months and with my assistance, have maintained these systems for years.
