Professional Overview:
Allan
Green currently owns and operates the QualiNET Company, providing instruction and courseware development in
Object-Oriented Design and Analysis using Rational Rose™ or System Architect™,
C++, Smalltalk, and Java languages. QualiNET courses are offered using the most popular and advanced
development platforms for Windows systems. QualiNET also provides custom courseware and instruction programs to meet unique training requirements, as
well as systems design and integration services. QualiNet has been in business since 1993.
Prior
to 1993, Mr. Green served as Adjunct professor of Computer Science at North
Carolina Central University under the auspices of IBM’s Faculty Loan
program. Mr. Green taught
computing-related courses in both the School of Business and the Department of
Computer Science, and was known for his commitment to the students and clarity
of learning objectives. He was
instrumental in introducing new topics into the computer science curriculum and
assisting the University with its local area network implementation.
From
1985-1991 Mr. Green managed the consolidation of all major IBM data center
facilities in the Connecticut, Westchester, New Jersey tri-state area. In 1985-87 all HQ production (MVS)
operations, most notably the accounting and ledger processing, were
consolidated at Sterling Forest, NY. During 1988-91 the HQ office/administration processing from 11 locations
in the tri-state area was consolidated and relocated to a new I/S facility at
Somers, NY. This project also had the
added complexity of "regionalization", i.e., standardizing the
support, operations, and user interface functions on one region-wide platform
or process. Both consolidations were highly successful and the regional centers were acknowledged leaders in remote operations, network management, and end-user services.
