The training is conducted by Henn Sarv.

Henn has been conducting trainings at IT Koolitus for over 25 years. He has previous training experience having shared his knowledge with Novell administrators for several years. At IT Koolitus, he has mainly, but not exclusively, focused on Microsoft products, ranging from regular users (Excel to Vision) to system administrators and programmers. However, his main expertise lies in databases (SQL) and business intelligence (BI, Excel).

Despite standing in front of the class for 25+ years, Henn has not lost touch with everyday life: he has established a development company and successfully sold it; he has consulted and implemented systems in several companies, owns a farm, and organizes badminton tournaments. Maintaining his connection with real life experiences helps Henn be an expert and a reliable source when sharing knowledge. His own ability to learn and him having completed over 60 professional exams allows him to understand learners excellently and serves as a strength for a trainer.
