Carl Robillard ’s journey
Holder of the CPA title and a Master's degree (M.Sc. in management control), I have been involved in deploying IT solutions since 1998. This is more than 23 years dedicated to improving business productivity.
My experience helps me diversify my knowledge over the years, in IT implementation, as a consultant, in delivery team management (consultants and developers), in sales, in marketing, in accounting, in IT security, in the cloud, in management of projects, and even as chairman of a board of directors. I also had the chance to implement solutions in various industries and sizes of organizations.
What seems to be different paths in appearance allows me today to be aware of the various issues and contexts and understand them.
In addition to meeting the continuing education requirements of CPAs,
here are some relevant training completed:
