Lockegnome has written about Linuxchix before - but it was a while ago. They offer online courses through mailing lists, webpages, and IRC.

For details about a specific course, click on the links below.

Many of the courses are taught on the courses mailing list….

If you go to the list options page and enter your email address you can see the courses which are running currently:

* Computing Careers (Uses subject tag [Careers])
* GIMP (Uses subject tag [gimp])
* UNIX filesystem course (Uses subject tag [FS])
* Linux commands course (Uses subject tag [Linux commands])
* Firewall course (Uses subject tag [FW])

If you are only interested in some of these courses, you can choose them from the list. There is also a setting so you can choose to receive or not receive messages which are not associated with any particular topic. Receiving these messages is recommended, since posts where the writer forgot a subject tag will fall in this category, as will admin messages….

You will find any material from the past courses that is still available through the links below. But since these courses are no longer active, please post any questions or comment to the most apropriate of the regular lists. eg Programming, Newchix or Techtalk.
