1. Target Audience and Pre-requisites
This course provides both home and office users with hands on training on Ubuntu. No prior knowledge of Ubuntu is required, although computer literacy is assumed and is a pre-requisite. Ubuntu 8.04 LTS must be installed on the computer hard disk before starting this course.
The Ubuntu desktop course is designed to be modular. If studied in a classroom in its entirety, it should be completed within two full days. However, topics and lessons can be selected as required and a day's content designed to suit the key learning objectives.
Sample material for various exercises is available through the ubuntu-desktop-course-resources package. The most current package is available through the canonical-training PPA (Personal Package Archive) in Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-training/+archive.
