Agreed,.  it could also depend on target audience,   complete novice 
(never touched a computer) or someone who can switch on the computer and 
find their way around the desktop.

it would be nice if this could be done in partnership with a college,  
perhaps that could reduce room hire costs, as to me it would be no 
different to a teaching assistant running a lesson if they have a good 
specialist knowledge of a subject along side a teacher of course

Then again I am not a teacher,  but I did a 3 hour course which allows 
me to teach rugby to 6 and 7 year olds ( anyone in Primary school, as 
its tag rugby).  Any lessons must be engaging, and keep the audience on 
track,  and not too much information at once.   lots of participation,  
needed.

There was talk of separate lists,  and i think it was agreed a newbie 
list would not be helpful as it would keep new users apart from 
experienced users,  however if this idea of teaching / running courses 
takes off it may be worth looking into a new list.   Having a list for 
lug members running courses.   that way any finer details can be 
discussed.  It would also be much easier to keep track of stuff.  while 
keeping the lug together.
