I've been teaching a CFML class at our local Community College here for the past couple years which I developed my own curriculum for. I set up a VPS with CF7/CF8 on it here at the Vivio Data Center and have the students FTP into it to do their course work. It's worked pretty well so far.
I also talked with a few of the folks at Adobe at CFUnited (when they made this particular announcement) and offered to donate my curriculum to the cause if they needed. So far I haven't heard anything back from them about it - and I've emailed them a couple times since CFUnited. Perhaps I'm just not emailing the right person, I'm not sure. It's understandable if folks create their own curriculum, but an existing set would make for a nice starting point IMHO. If nothing else, I can wrap it up into a nice little package and offer it to the community as well. We'll see.
