Two men chatting on a video call.

Simon Tomes
Neil Taylor
Had a lovely chat with Neil Taylor. If you don't know him then you should check out his profile and goals for 2026. He's brought a lot and has plenty more to give back to the testing and quality community.
We reflected on the days of spending a couple of grand to attend a 2 day course, and that's all you get. Wild!
I'm glad that MoT is the antithesis of this see ya later learning approach. An approach that says "once your learning is complete, you are now on your own, bye!"
Folks can genuinely make the most of their professional membership as much as they like! The membership unlocks a powerful style of learning.
Learning with an MoT professional membership isn't only about taking courses, it's so much more than that.
I'm so glad Neil is part of the MoT community and has a professional membership. He gets it and understands the power of learning with a community. It was great to talk!
