One of our mantras here at IJYI is “always learning”. We always encourage our team to take advantage of training and certification opportunities and we’re delighted to announce some of our teams’ most recent achievements.

Julia Hunter recently achieved Microsoft Certified Trainer status and became a Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate. Julia recently delivered her first course via Firebrand Training.

Levi Butler became a Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer: App Builder.

Dave Tomkinson achieved Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate: SQL Server.

Luckily another one of our mantras is “always celebrating”! This is good because with our high-achieving team we always seem to have a lot to celebrate! Nice one team!

Speaking of celebrations, not only have our team been working hard to achieve their Microsoft certifications, another team member, Robyne Birkby has been shortlisted in the Agile Angel category of the DevelopHer Awards . We’re so proud of our #rockinrobyne who was also a finalist last year! Good luck Robyne, we’ll all be rooting for you next week!
