<> == Mentors and Guides == The Ubuntu Beginners Team (UBT) has two types of guides to assist people as they become involved in the Ubuntu community. === Guides === The first type is the UBT Guide. Guides will help guide a Apprentice along the path of becoming an UBT member. They will assist with setting up a wiki, launchpad page, signing the Ubuntu Code of Conduct and other tasks related to becoming an UBT member. === Mentors === The second type is an UBT Mentor. Mentors will have one or more specific areas of expertise. They will mentor people who wish to become members of other Ubuntu teams such as bug-control, accessibility or lubuntu. Mentors must have received recommendations from other Ubuntu teams related to their area(s) of expertise. This is done to ensure a level of quality. === Current Guides === ||Guides||Apprentice|| ||<-2:> UTC -2 to UTC +2 || || [[bioterror]] || [[gaurav-pawaskar]], [[klynch]] || || [[coalwater]] || [[krusi]] || || [[Daniel0108]] || [[eaespinoza0|eaespinoza0]], [[StevenRichards|Captainkrtek]] || || {*} [[forestpiskie|hobgoblin]] || || || {*} [[ibuclaw]] || || || [[MichealH]] (Micheal Harker) || [[alex-averill2013|robotman]] || || [[MrChrisDruif]] || || || [[pedro3005]] || || || {*} [[Silver_Fox]] || [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/nrwlion | nrwlion]] || || {*} [[UndiFineD]] (k.dejong) || [[evfool]], [[JasonOdoom]], [[math-herbert]] || ||<-2:> UTC -3 to UTC -7 || || {*} [[komputes]] || || || {*} [[BodhiZazen|bodhi_zazen]]|| || || {*} [[cprofitt]]|| [[MatthewButler]], [[lboorse2]] (Lee Boorse), [[eaespinoza0]], [[josephmills]], [[benny]], [[disassembler]] || || {*} [[ddecator]] || [[jdeslaur]] || || {*} [[duanedesign]] || [[shredder12]], [[malev]] || || [[jackyalcine]] || [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/nav.coder|wolfpack]], [[Bipul]] || || [[jledbetter]] || || || {*} [[nhandler]] (Nathan Handler) || || || {*} [[PabloRubianes]] || || || {*} [[Paultag|paultag]] (Paul Tagliamonte)|| [[Cheri703]] (Cherí) || || {*} [[starcraft.man]] || [[omar-elmohandes]]|| ||<-2:> UTC -8 to UTC -12 || || [[seidos]] || || || {*} [[Tenach]] || [[saji89]] (Saji N.) || ||<-2:> UTC +3 to UTC +7 || ||<-2:> UTC +8 to UTC +12 || || {*} [[Vantrax]] (Matthew Lye) || || || {*} [[JaredNorris]] (head_victim) || || ||<-2:> Unspecified || || {*} [[http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=194976|LeAstrale]] (Jesper Henriksen) || [[Severity1]] (John Reilly Pospos) || || {*} [[stlsaint]] || [[thebwt]] || <
