My name is Klaus Reich and I am living near Innsbruck, a city in the Alps in Austria. I am married and we have a son who is seven months old. Hobbies include mountain hiking, mountain biking, and I am currently doing paragliding training (still 17 flights to go to get my licence). However, at the moment I spend most of my free time with my son :-)

Professional background
I am working as a new media/teacher training coordinator in the Vice-Rectorate for Students and Teaching and research officer at the Institute of Educational Science - both at the University of Innsbruck. My focus is on continuing professional development for educators/trainers and in e-learning, including accessibility and usability of learning environments, barrier-free web-design, e-accessibility and evaluation of web-based learning. I have worked for several years as a project officer in these fields as well.

Education
I grew up in Upper Austria, another federal state of Austria. I spent my school years there in a grammar school in Bad Leonfelden (a tiny city near the Czech border. My studies took me to the University of Innsbruck where I studied teacher training in the field of geography, business education and theology. Two years ago I finished a two year training at the University of Linz on barrierfree webdesign. In addition I did some seminars and courses on (international) project management. Here a list of Wikieducator participants from Austria - few at the moment but more to openly declare themselves asap :-D
