Not all schools allow "skill builder" enrollment. If they do it will only be if there is space after the students enrolled in degree programs are taken care of. 2. Classes at most of these schools will run 9-12 weeks. Assuming you look at night classes you are looking at 1 or 2 nights/week and 3-5 hours/class. 3. Most of these courses are designed to fit into a program. Depending on the role of Linux in the context of the program you may find that it doesn't focus on what you are looking for. My perspective on this is from the Instructor's side of the desk. I know there are some other folks on this list with experience as instructors and students. So if I'm way off base I'm sure they'll help out. ;-) Jack -- Jack Ungerleider jack at jacku.com http://www.jacku.com
