Canonical Partners Launching Ubuntu Server Training

After Canonical launches Ubuntu 9.04 on April 23, the company will play an encore by launching a series of training courses — for Ubuntu Server Edition and even cloud computing. Here’s the scoop, only from The VAR Guy.

The new training efforts begin in May, when Canonical launches Online Virtual Training for Ubuntu Server Edition. And in June, Canonical’s training partners will introduce a classroom-based server course. The face-to-face training will be available in 12 countries, according to Billy Cina, Canonical’s Training Programmes Manager.

With the Ubuntu server course in place, Canonical’s training program will grow to include four courses:

* An Ubuntu desktop course, which shows end-users how to master Ubuntu for their everyday needs.

* Ubuntu Certified Professional, which shows junior-level administrators how to set up Ubuntu (mainly desktop) in the small-to-medium office.

* Deploying Ubuntu Server Edition, which trains administrators to deploy, configure and maintain secure Ubuntu servers.

* Supporting Ubuntu, which helps participants to troubleshoot some common issues faced with Ubuntu
