# Nominated for Trainer of the Year 2025

# Nominated for Trainer of the Year 2025

I was surprised and happy to hear that I've been nominated for _Trainer of the Year 2025_ at this year's [Developers Day event](https://developersday.se/). It made me think about how much of my career has been about sharing knowledge and helping others grow.

## Sharing Knowledge, Then and Now

Looking back, sharing knowledge has been a common thread in my working life. It started in the 90s, when I ran a BBS (Bulletin Board System) and then published CD-ROM collections for programmers. After that I started Programmers Heaven, one of the early large online communities for developers.

Later, I co-founded [Edument](https://www.edument.se/), a consulting and training company where we focused on high-quality training and guidance for organizations and individuals. Today I do the same through training, consulting and speaking. You can read more about my background [here](https://tn-data.se/about/).

## Still Going

What began as curiosity and a wish to share what I knew has stayed with me ever since. It is rewarding to help others learn and to see them succeed.

The award ceremony will take place at the Developers Day gala, and I'm looking forward to celebrating with other trainers and developers who also care about learning and sharing knowledge.

## Thank You

Thank you to whoever nominated me, and to all the people I've worked with over the years. Your collaboration, feedback and enthusiasm have meant a lot.
