About Dragonetti Group
Dragonetti Group teaches Public Operations Training across Canada. We consist of a group of dedicated educators with combined expertise across all sections of Public Works. Our cohort of 10 educators is organized and led by Darcy Dragonetti, allowing us to provide flexible scheduling in both virtual and in-person classes.
Darcy Dragonetti
Darcy enjoys taking time out with family and friends to have a few laughs and appreciate the simple things in life, like doodling, hanging out with grandkids and helping out around the house.
Michelle Heinz
Michelle and her husband Peter have three grown children so, as empty nesters they’re now more able to escape on surfing trips on Vancouver Island to enjoy the wild beauty of British Columbia’s west coast.
Michael Ippen
Mike's obsession with the LA Rams has cultivated tremendous patience and helped him lower his expectations that a professional sports team can bring lasting happiness.
Kevin Ramsay
Kevin is a rabid lover of sports along with his many interests, developing property or travelling to hot places to name a few. He can’t resist being under the sun and near the shoreline enjoying good times with family and friends.
David Kidd
Dave enjoys travelling to tropical destinations and spending time exploring the west coast on his motorcycle or hiking the local mountains. If he's not out adventuring you will find him hanging out at the local arena as an avid fan and General Manager of the port Coquitlam Jr. A Saints lacrosse club.
Don Degen
Don's passion is music, playing piano and singing in a variety of rock bands over the past number of years. Don has also travelled with his wife extensively, having taken many trips to explore various parts of Europe. Spending time with family, friends, grandkids, golfing and giving back to the industry through teaching also rounds out Don's retirement.
