Apologies if the rest of this looks like an advert, but people have been asking and not getting very positive answers. In the Bachelor Computer Systems (Networking) at Box Hill Institute in Melbourne, there is a second year subject "Multi-user O/S Admin". I will be teaching that this semester and I hope to base the syllabus on LPI exam curricula 101, 102 and 202. It's not direct training for the LPI exams since it is a degree subject, but will track the syllabus reasonably well. It will run Fridays for ~13 weeks from Feb 20 for 6 hours per day (in Melbourne). People with appropriate backgrounds could study it through arrangement. If there is enough interest, Box Hill Commercial could probably mount courses anywhere.
