Informal Education

A go-to for me has been Udemy – they have a lot of really good courses that can help brush up on skills. All the courses are on demand so you can take them at your own pace, when you have the opportunity.

I have created 45+ courses available on Udemy now ranging from Certification Preparation courses for various IT related certifications to special interest courses on sailing.

	Doug Sibley
Managing Director at BMO Capital Markets, Chicago, Illinois USA Wade and I worked together when he was supporting me from the Central Program Office within Regulatory Controls in BMO Capital Markets and again for another group within the Bank. Wade is a pleasure to work with, detail oriented, and produces great results. Wade gets up-to-speed very quickly, presents a good range of options, and produces good results. It would be my pleasure and privilege to work with him again in the future.

Director, Compliance Management, Policies and Procedures at BMO Capital Markets - Toronto, Canada “Genuine Professional” is what comes to mind when I think about Wade. I worked with him at BMO in Regulatory Controls for a year and a half and he was a go-to for anything IT related – he’s quite the technology wizard with process re-engineering and automation, plus he’s great to work with! Wade is always punctual, his knowledge is vast and thorough. Is always extremely enthusiastic about his work which is infectious. He denotes a lot of analytical capability and willingness for both his personal & professional development. He most definitely shines in a hectic environment. I think one of the key things is that he in not a “yes man”. He will give sincere opinion on a topic and if the decision on the matter goes the other way, he supports the decision and moves forward with it without pause. Definitely deserves recommending.

AVP, Enterprise Technology Solutions (ETS) Portfolio Governance, Toronto Canada Wade is an excellent project practitioner who brings a mature understanding of professional project management. He helped to raise the practice bar for my team. It was a pleasure working with someone who gets project management...who is not dependent upon prescribed templates and tools to be effective. Instead, Wade's deep appreciation for Project Management enables him to develop tools as appropriate and "get things done" in a professional manner...even in environments lacking practice maturity.
