-------- Forwarded Message --------

thePILOTS is due to be launched in the new year and we are looking for
people to collaborate in the development of the qualification.  The
qualification will be operating system independent, but the materials
will be developed for GNU/Linux.

The qualification will be certified by The Learning Machine, a QCA
approved awarding body, and development is being led by M6-IT CIC.  It
will be referenced to the National Occupational Standards for ICT
practitioners.

The target audience will be technicians working in small organisations
and 16+ education.

The project is being hosted at http://gna.org/
The website is at http://www.thepilots.org/
The developers discussion can be subscribed to at
https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/thepilots-dev/

Please join us and help us to create a qualification that will be truly
useful.

thanks, with apologies for the inevitable cross-postings,
