 Firstly, wish you the best with this !! Like KG mentioned, we could do
 with some more python programmers.

 On the topic of slides/notes, IMHO, free (as in freedom) documents are
 good. My recommendation would be to make your slides/notes available
 (possibly for a fee) under a CC-BY-SA (and possibly NC) license. This
 might also help people who cannot/do not want to attend the training
 but would like to buy/download the courseware.

 I understand completely the point about the time and effort it takes
 to create content (having conducted trainings myself) but that's a one
 time investment. Having free documents /might/ help you improve them
 via suggestions/patches from others.

What I intended as a simple announcement has become a rather useful
thread on how to structure my material.

Thanks for the suggestions. :)


I remembered this only after I sent the mail, here is an example of what I was speaking of:

http://www.upfrontsystems.co.za/courses

I had used that to conduct one zope course myself (with explicit permission from the guys at Upfront). If you skim through the material you'll see that they make references to the handouts and code but that isn't available for download (but that does not make the content less useful).

cheers,
