Linux/Unix course at CSI

For anyone interested this spring semester I will be teaching the “INFT 179″ Linux/Unix course at our local community college , the College of Southern Idaho.

“The purpose of this course is to provide the fundamental
skills needed to work in a Unix/Linux environment including
an introduction to Unix commands, installation, and
configuration and Linux basics, networking, productivity, and
administration.”

It is three credit hours and I will be mixing up the syllabus and the course a bit.  I’m going to make it really hands-on and exciting.  I want people to get *interested* and I want them to understand the opportunities provided to them by having a Linux box around. (Embedded applications, pbx’s, nas, smb integration, etc)  This is a beginners course so I will only touch on and mention the potential opportunities.

I’m hoping to increase enrollment in this course as well as work on other potential programs CSI could have, an advanced linux/unix, and a asterisk /ip telephony course , etc.

Let me know if you’re interested in taking the course.
