Novell launches its first Linux Desktop admin certification 19 March, 2007 At Brainshare, Novell announced it has joined the OpenCourseWare Consortium, a global initiative of higher education institutions designed to create open educational content using a shared model. Novell is among the first commercial enterprises to participate in the OpenCourseWare Consortium, joining the likes of MIT, Harvard Law School, and a number of other leading universities around the world. Novell also launched its first certification focused on the Linux desktop, reflecting growing interest in open source alternatives to existing prop rietary desktops. In the spirit of the open source software model, the OpenCourseWare Consortium is a collaboration of over 100 institutions worldwide working to promote the free and open digital publication of high quality educational materials, organized as courses, said John Dehlin, director of the OpenCourseWare Consortium. It is only fitting that Novell, a leader in open source and a pioneer in IT training, is among the first commercial enterprises to join the Consortium. We warmly welcome Novell to the OpenCourseWare Consortium, and hope this serves as a model for more commercial enterprises to share their knowledge in the education arena. The newly-launched Novell Certified Linux Desktop Administrator 10 program will validate the skills of administrators managing Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise desktop. With increasing traction in the market around the Linux desktop, the new certification will give customers confidence they can get the expertise they need to maximize the value of Linux desktops in their environment.
