"I found the course surprisingly good. For example, I used to drive a lot on auto-pilot, with my head somewhere else. And I didn’t think much about what I put on the back seat, not realising it could become a missile If I had to brake suddenly. The course has definitely made me a better driver, even after 45 years of driving.”

Ryan Balemi is the founder of leading IT service provider Pulse IT, and brings a wealth of technical knowledge to support the delivery of the SharpDrive e-learning platform, specifically around successful cloud based IT delivery. 

“During my five years in the volunteer fire service I recall the adrenalin that would come when I heard the siren go up and the pager go off. The excitement of what the next call-out might be. But when that message came through “MVA (Motor Vehicle Accident), persons trapped”, the entire tone of the crew changed. Whilst we would always step-up and perform to our utmost, it was never a call-out that we wanted to attend. Reducing the number of times the pager says “MVA” is going to be a great thing for NZ, and I’m excited to be at the forefront of this undertaking”.
