Small project on which he over-delivered way beyond expectations. Terrific attention to detail. Has applied his knowledge to the task enthusiastically and fully. Delivered back work of exemplary quality. Thoroughly delighted with the results, without doubt recommending him.

Qualifications
BCS Part 1
1981
British Computer Society
A certification for IT professionals in the UK, the "Part 1" exam has since been superceded by other more subject-specific qualifications. In the early 80's I achieved Part 1 certification following post-graduate study on a 1-day-per week course over a year, in conjunction with review of on-the-job training with my employer.
