Ian Green: Merci IT and website developer

Ian Green has been teaching Information Technology (IT) in the community for several years; he was trained in many popular software packages and network administration whilst working for London Underground in the 90’s. He then left the world of paid employment and used his IT skills to run computer centres in various environmental, social and community projects in London on a voluntary basis. In this time he developed skills needed to engage learners from a wide variety of backgrounds in the community and developed a programme of courses to suit the learners needs.

He started working as the computer suite facilitator at Bridge-5 Mill in April 2003. His role is to run the suite and provide one-to-one support for local people in all aspects of IT and develop and deliver a range of courses aimed at all levels of experience.

He has spent the last few years researching and developing open source content management systems and has built lots of websites for voluntary and community sector organisations.
