About the Author
Susan Hodges has an extensive background in Information Technology and has worked as a programmer, analyst, designer, project manager, and systems manager. She spent many years managing a technical training subsidiary of a large company, which gave her the unique opportunity to remain a generalist while most technologists were forced into specialties. Many of the customers she dealt with requested training for non-technical staff who "don’t need to do this stuff, they need to be able to talk with the people who do it." In 1989 Ms. Hodges established SemCo Enterprises, Inc. to answer this need. SemCo provides training and tools for non-technical people who work with IT professionals. All of SemCo’s products are technically correct yet free of jargon – a unique combination. Her reputation as an authority on corporate IT continues to grow as she watches the changing field and translates the technology into an understandable format for business men and women via seminars, literature, and speaking engagements.
