Damien Bruyndonckx has an interest in teaching that dates back to his original training as an elementary school teacher. He began his career in 1998, teaching French as a foreign language in two elementary public schools in Louisiana, USA. In 2001, he came back to Belgium, his home country, and began to work as an IT trainer. He soon acquired the title of Adobe Certified Instructor on various Adobe products, which allowed him to work for a large number of customers and Adobe-authorized training centers across Europe. In 2009, he went back to teaching in a school. He now works at IHECS (http://www.ihecs.be), a higher education school of communications, based in Brussels, where he teaches multimedia and serves as the eLearning coordinator of the school. Thanks to his work at IHECS, Damien became an Adobe Education Leader in November 2011. He also has his own company that provides Adobe Training and eLearning consultancy. Damien is the author of Adobe Captivate 7 for Mobile Learning, published in August 2013, and Mastering Adobe Captivate 7, published in February 2014, both by Packt Publishing. You will find him speaking at various Captivate and eLearning-related events around the world. He lives in Thuin, Belgium, with his girlfriend and his two children. Damien is a music lover and occasionally works as a sound and lighting technician in the entertainment industry.
