At the recent VMware Certified Instructors (VCI) day at VMware World Barcelona, Fabrizo de Luca, Italy received the EMEA VCI of the Quarter Award. The award was presented by Laura Narducci, Vice President, Shared Services – Global Support in recognition of outstanding instructors in EMEA who share their expertise about VMware technologies with others. Fabrizo received the award for the period July through September for his superior efforts: he delivered several vSphere classes across EMEA and online, with average evaluation scores above 4.9 out of 5. Fabrizio has created his own website to share information with students, and has also been instrumental in testing the new VMware vSphere 5.5 courses. Most telling, however are the wonderful comments from his students:“This is about ten years that I followed courses for different products. This is the best instructor I had. He knows his stuff and manages to keep us concentrating along the courses.”“Excellent skills, knows many times more than the content. A very enjoyable person with sense of humor and lots of experience”
