ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR, FLAVIO MINI
Flavio has over 30 years experience with technical documentation, desktop publishing, document configuration, document revision control, graphic design and form design. Prior to joining the Eliquo team, Flavio worked for CMC Electronics and Ultra Electronics Tactical Communications Systems where he worked on numerous technical publications, graphic design projects, presentations and web publishing projects. At each of these companies Flavio introduced a direct to print system for technical publications that greatly reduced storage and production costs. He has also illustrated and layed out over 25 technical school books for the École Polytechnique de Université de Montréal.
Following his career in technical publications production, Flavio taught Adobe software and design theory for three years at a small design school in Montreal. Flavio joined the Eliquo team in the spring of 2009 as our senior design and print instructor for the Quebec region.
As a bilingual instructor for Eliquo, Flavio’s expertise is invaluable to the success of our clients’ design, publishing and e-Learning projects. Having directly worked with Adobe software in the print and design industry allows Flavio to directly relate to students’ project requirements and learning needs.
Flavio also regularly presents, in English and French, at Adobe product demos and seminars.
