Good Question, I just learned more Marketing Techniques, and of course EACOSS does this and even more, We actually run full courses for Systems & Network Administration, Database Development & Administration among others.
I will post more information here if the forum allows me to inform about what we are doing, we are even working on a standard certifications and collaborating with three leading Universities on this already.
