With more than twenty-eight years in the software industry, I have worked as a Developer, Test Analyst and Test Manager for a variety of different organizations. From 1999 to 2011 I worked as a consultant/partner within Grove Consultants. In 2011 I set up Lloyd Roden Consultancy, an independent training and consultancy company specialising in software testing.

My passion is to enthuse, excite and inspire people in the area of software testing. I believe that any work that I do, whether it be in the form of consultancy or training, must be relevant, practical and must make a difference to the individual as well as the organisation. It is important to me that people not only enjoy the courses that I run but they improve their skills in software testing which will ultimately reflect on the improved quality of the products being delivered by the organisation. My pass rates for the ISTQB qualifications are much higher than the averages.
