Hi all! Karen of Karen Tests Stuff here ✨ It’s been awhile since I’ve been active in the MoT community, but I love how y’all have been thriving since our last contact ❤ - What brings you to The Club and Ministry of Testing community? Today, I’m posting to let everyone know that @testerfromleic and I are running an abstract-writing workshop at #testbash Brighton next week called “Your Name Here”! If you’re a new public speaker, or have an idea you would like to share on stage, come and join our workshop to take the first step. Side note: I’m one of the most awkward people who you’ll meet at TestBash, so please please please come be awkward with me 🙏 **SEE YOU THERE** ---

Hi Everyone Kay here. I got recommended to this platform by a programme I have just started. Very happy to be part of this community and can’t wait to see what lies ahead in the testing adventure. ---

Hello all, I’m James. - **What brings you to The Club and Ministry of Testing community?** I love this place, it’s full of great people and even though I often describe myself as an introvert, MoT community always feels like home. And it’s even better when I get to see some of the friendly faces in person at the events 🙂 - **What are you excited about right now?** Right now I’m excited to be going to TestBash next week!! - **What do you want to learn?** Everything! - I love learning about new things. - **Where are you based?** I’m based in Birmingham UK - **What else could you share about yourself?** I love asking the “stupid” questions. y’know, the ones that everyone else seems scared or embarrassed to ask… I ask those all the time!! I have a spaniel called Freddie, he’s my little shadow and keeps me sane. I love testing and tech in general. But I also love cars and engines, I have worked on and driven many cars. My first engine transplant was done with only the knowledge gained from YouTube videos. ---

Hi, You are in good company here. ATSQA has some paid curated Micro-essential training that could help towards ISTQB Foundation Level exam and additional Certification. ---
