Yannick Warnier is a seasoned web services leader with 19 years’ experience designing and delivering secure, scalable web and e-learning platforms from PHP backends to cloud/DevOps infrastructure. As founder and technical lead of the Chamilo Association and Web Services Manager at BeezNest, he has positioned an open-source LMS among the world’s top solutions while launching and managing divisions and multi‑country projects. He combines hands-on PHP development and code-quality work (notably UTF-8 and PHPDoc improvements in the popular Chamilo LMS) with developer training, process-driven engineering, and international business development. Yannick’s expertise spans e-learning standards (SCORM, AICC, IMS), open source transition advocacy, and running projects up to €100k. A regular speaker across Europe and Latin America, he cultivates local communities and practical adoption of open standards. He pairs entrepreneurial initiative with pragmatic engineering—often improving organizational practices as much as code.
