Hi Roly,

Re cost, it depends on how much training / number of different topics / no
of trainees. As a guide, I charge 25.00 for 1.5 hours when providing
training on a one to one basis, normally.


ok. I will forward these details and he can decide. Man y thanks.


However, I am happy to be flexible on fees and would charge less per person
for multiple trainees in a group.

I have enough laptops to do a group of 4 people and of course, would be
happy for people to bring their own if they have a laptop.

Perhaps I could come up with a suggested list of topics that may be useful
for a beginner?

Yes, if you would not mind. But please don't spend much of your time
on it. Obviously, I have yet to ask if my friend would be interested.

Something I have gathered from attending the past couple of LUG meetings is that more and more new users are starting to turn up, I'm wondering if it is worth putting together some sort of training material which can then be taught?

With the upcoming release of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, maybe something could be based on this (I don't want to start a distro flame war here, I'm just thinking that 10.04 LTS is going to be around for 3 years and won't change like other distros can do every 6 months or so).

I'm still keeping an eye out for possible venues too, I guess somewhere like the Shoreline is handy if it's quiet (say on a Sunday morning or something), if I can find anywhere else I'll post it to the list.
