Thanks Angelos. It will be great to have OSGeoLive support and representation for this. One of our education aims to also to get Introductory Geospatial educational materials into OSGeo Live. This will make it a complete resource (software, data and tutorials) for educators worldwide.
We are hoping to also make use the FOSS4G-Europe meeting in Como to bring together ideas for this and we are hoping for strong presence from OSGeo Live community for this.

Excellent!
Please let me know if you need support/representation of OSGeoLive in
that meeting.
Best,
Angelos

My goal is to convert my crime mapping course into using QGIS and then possibly using QGIS or other open source software in our Intro to Remote Sensing class. The crime mapping course will be part of the GeoTech Center’s model courses (it will have interchangeable ArcInfo labs and QGIS labs). I know it is not a lot, but I figured I would introduce myself

One of the reasons why Proprietery vendors are running successful certification programs for their software is that they invest lot of time and effort for this as they see the importance of this for their business and expansion.

For example, the Geo Academy program that Phil and others are offering which is based on essential curriculum of Geospatial Technology Competency Model (GTCM) covering both the background theory of geospatial science as well as the hands-on application using Open Source GIS software should be used to launch the Certification program for Open source GIS. Any student who successfully completed all the five courses of this program should be offered the Open Source Geospatial Certificate or similar along with the university certificate offered by GeoTech.
