[NTLUG:Discuss] Summer LAMP course offerings at North Lake College

[Brian]

North Lake College in Irving will again be offering LAMP courses, 
this time during the first summer session (6/6 - 7/28). These are 
8-week, 3 credit-hour courses with extensive hands-on opportunities 
in a dedicated LAMP lab environment. The summer schedule will consist 
of Linux Installation and Configuration (MW 5:45-9:25) and PHP 
Programming (TR 5:45-9:25).  Apache and MySQL will be offered in the 
fall. 
 
The LAMP courses currently offered will also be incorporated in 
state's first Open Source Certificate program, to be offered 
exclusively at North Lake College beginning Fall of 2005.  This is a 
program that has been made possible by a grant from the Texas Skills 
Standards Board and will serve to elevate the status of open source 
technology throughout the state.  I hope to have a webpage outlining 
what this will mean for Texas open source efforts as soon as time 
permits.
