Novell today launched a new introductory Linux training course designed for academic environments, giving educational institutions a powerful new tool to promote open source training and students a new option for learning Linux. Unique among Linux vendor offerings, Novell’s new course maps directly to one of the most widely recognized vendor-neutral certifications in the Linux market, CompTIA(R) Linux+, newly updated for 2005. Novell also announced it will donate $1.5 million in SUSE LINUX software and training materials to educational institutions to help promote Linux adoption.
