After completing his education, Alan joined a Computer Bureau to begin his computing career, programming IBM Mainframes in COBOL, FORTRAN and PLAN. The systems and clients were varied and included Financial and Personnel, but they were mainly scientific, such as designing water pipeflow systems for Local Councils. During this time, Alan completed the British Computer Society Part I qualification. Alan then went on to join the Ocean Transport & Trading shipping Company, programming and designing on an IBM mainframe in COBOL and CICS. The systems were again varied, including Financial, Personnel and Shipping, (where the ships and their cargo were all accounted for and tracked). Alan then decided to work further afield and went to Saudi Arabia, working for Saudia Airlines and also a large construction company. He designed and wrote systems in COBOL on IBM and Honeywell mainframes. These were Personnel, Cash Management and other Financial systems, as well as engineering systems, Stock Control systems and Bills of Quantities. Arriving back in the UK at the start of the PC revolution, Alan then joined the large retail company, Littlewoods. In the PC Support department, Alan configured and installed the PC systems in various regional offices. From this time, Alan designed training courses and taught hundreds of users in the prevailing software of the time (Lotus 1-2-3, DataEase, dBase and WordPerfect, then moving into the Microsoft Office suite with the change to Microsoft Windows.) Alan was also responsible for the design and implementation of the Training Department's Intranet Website. He also developed bespoke courses for Business Applications written by the Systems Developers. Alan now works as an independent trainer, teaching the MS Office applications, Outlook, FrontPage, HTML and Business Objects (Reporter and Explorer). |
