Logical Operations, the world’s leading provider of information technology instructor-led courseware, is pleased to announce the new Managing Director for the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) regions, James Varnham. Effective immediately, Varnham will be responsible for managing and growing Logical Operations with our dedicated EMEA team.

James Varnham is a 17-year veteran of the training and certification industry and has held international senior management roles at organizations such as Certiport/Pearson VUE and ITpreneurs. He has also been an active contributor in European Commission initiatives such as e-Skills for Jobs, and acted as Head of the Danish Delegation in relation to the European standardization of e-competences and information and communication technology (ICT) professionalism. James has a keen interest in the opportunities that digitalization offers across all sectors, and where continued training and skills development empowers individuals and enables organizations, academia, and governments to achieve their ambitions.

“As a growing global business, Logical Operations has continued to invest in our worldwide teams. With the addition of James, we are demonstrating a further commitment to our international partners,” said Jeff Felice, EVP Partners & Alliances. “James brings a significant amount of industry and regional experience, which we know will be of great benefit to our EMEA training partners as they look to grow their business with Logical Operations.”

“Joining Logical Operations is a logical move (no pun intended),” said James Varnham. “The continued acceleration of digitalization across all industry sectors provides the world with services, driven by more and more technologies. It creates greater demands on a larger percentage of the workforce to have relevant skills and competences to effectively do their jobs – whether that be of a technical nature, the marketing executive, or relating to data privacy. Logical Operations’ deep and broad portfolio of learning curriculum, and industry leadership in developing certification standards, truly put us in a unique position as a full-service provider to our training partners and customers, so that they have the assets to educate the global workforce of today and tomorrow. It is humbling to be given the opportunity of leading our EMEA business, and to be part of an organization who for over three decades has been known for its quality and focus on the service it provides to partners and customers.”
