Bio
Lawrence Contreras
Benn has always been a great help and quickly became one of the 'go to' people at Webanywhere when staff required up-skilling. His knowledge of Moodle and Totara is exceptional, as is his communication when passing on that knowledge.
Jonathan Smith
Benn is a fantastic solutions architect who possesses a unique ability to articulate highly technical concepts in language which is easily understood by even the most non-technical client. Benn has an incredibly positive mindset and boundless energy which means that he meets challenges head-on and always provides first rate technical support to both colleagues and clients. Benn had a broad knowledge of the e-learning industry, across both platforms and content solutions, and can leverage his capabilities across a range of disciplines including requirements specification, solution design, systems integration and project management. Benn is able to bring a client’s requirements to life, taking even the most basic specification and using his creativity to show how this could look as an LMS. In my time working with him his supportive, adaptable and considerate approach led to happy customers, profitable projects and returning clients.
