About

My name is Jaap Wesselius and I’m working as an independant consultant in The Netherlands, focussing on Microsoft business productivity solutions with Microsoft Exchange server, Office 365, Skype for Business/Teams and identity management solutions.

After getting my Bachelor Degree in 1990 (Applied Physics) I accidentally got a job in IT on a helpdesk at Turmac Tobacco Company which later became Rothmans (if I recall correctly). Later in the nineties I worked at the Delft University of Technology and Akam Expertise. In those days I also did a part-time study ‘Informatiekunde’ at the Haagsche Hogeschool in The Hague.

Both at the University and Akam Expertise I was involved in Windows projects (NT 3.51 and 4.0) but thing really started to fly when I joined Microsoft in 1997. At first in Premier Support and later on at MCS, but in both departments I did mainly Exchange related projects. Early 2006 I left Microsoft to become an independent consultant.

Because of my work for the (Exchange) community I was awarded with an MVP award for Exchange Server in 2007, and award I still hold in 2020. I wrote a book on Exchange 2010 (A practical approach) and two on Exchange 2013 (via Apress) and one was coauthored by fellow MVP Michel de Rooij.

In the past I also did presentation for TechEd, MEC, the Quest Experts Conference and Connections, but at this moment I only do local community events which we organize ourselves (although difficult now with these Corona times).
