Hi all, (apologies to the many lists - I'm not sure if all of you are interested, but wanted to keep the original CCs just in case) I'm also working on content for a masters-level course involving OpenStack. Since so many are interested, perhaps we should have a meeting to discuss aims and potential pooled efforts? (or just start an etherpad?) It's important to note that there are different levels at which this can be pitched. That is, from teaching until being 'able to use' an OpenStack cloud, through to being 'able to develop' the middleware - and at various degrees within each level. Of course, a lot of content is common and any such academic effort should see how it ties in with the recent questions about training material. Perhaps the first step is to collate our various plans and see where compatibilities are ? Regards, Tom On 28/04/13 23:34, Frans Thamura wrote:

Yes. Agree. Curriculum is more.important.

Hi Frans,

I work in the Higher Education (HE) sector at Cork Institute of Technology (CIT), Ireland (www.cit.ie <http://www.cit.ie>) and I'm also the organiser of OpenStack Ireland meetups (http://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Ireland/). At CIT we run various cloud related academic programmes (http://cloud.cit.ie) which are delivered online to a global audience. For sometime now I have been thinking about offering an online course related to OpenStack and would be delighted to hear views from you and others about this suggestion. Your ideas about certification are great but we probably would need to focus on the curriculum first.

One idea that I have had is to explore the possibility of setting up and running a free MOOC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massive_open_online_course) similar to https://www.coursera.org/. This would allow us to reach a scalable global audience. Coming from the HE sector I can help with certification and have extensive knowledge of online delivery, that's my day job!

Regards, Tim

hi all

I am working with Education, take a look www.jeni-academy.org <http://www.jeni-academy.org>

now i am thinking to create OpenSTack + CLoudFoundry certification, that we will give to the teacher in every school (targeting vocational highschool/secondary school and polytechnics).

any one can work together for this? because I want to put logo in our certification

for OpenStack, where is the place i can ask for this permission?

this program usually part of my experience create user group,

every school or region of state will become regional academy = state based user group,

I love to work together with anyone outside Indonesia, for smiliar work, so we can create one content, one program, and better result.

West JAva State only, have 263 schools , and around 12.000 school target all over Indonesia, that will be interesting work, around 500.000 student.

right now they focus is "IaaS", and our focus in JAva User Group/JENI is PaaS.

Microsoft asks me to put Azure, but they cannot provide the license for education, so I give the rest of the network to OpenStack.. plus CloudFoundry

Right now we use Ubuntu..

NB: I wish Redhat interest with this, but I email to RH SEA, no program for this yet in our region.

We have create a free material to setup, deploy, setup OpenSTack and CloudFoundry, the missing thing is -- Frans Thamura (曽志胜) Shadow Master and Lead Investor Meruvian. Integrated Hypermedia Java Solution Provider.
