It is always good to hear about *BSD classes being offered. I don't see anything about "certification" or evaluating skills there other than it says complete the three stages and receive certification. It just looks like normal FreeBSD classes like I have been teaching for around four years (which also have a "certificate of course completion"). Except they say "eLearning" -- my classes are in a real classroom environment. (We do hope to soon start providing *BSD training with video soon ... starting with Apache Web Server Administration.) > It's the only one I know of, and it's the only one officially approved > by the FreeBSD team.

Where can I find out more about being "officially approved by the FreeBSD team"? Jeremy C. Reed technical support & remote administration http://www.pugetsoundtechnology.com/
