Ubuntu Forums Beginners Team (UFBT)
UFBT has taken a step forward, with guidance from BodhiZazen, and collaborates with Ubuntu Classroom. They offer IRC events and courses, held in #ubuntu-classroom. Events are less formal, based on a Q&A format or a one day topic. A course is more formal, including series of sessions all related to the same topic (Python 101, Python 201, etc). Upcoming topics are Security, Packaging, How to use LP, How to triage bug reports, How to stay current with Ubuntu Events/Community, How to IRC (clients, registration, channels, etc). Not all potential topics have been scheduled yet. The first two events will be on Security (March 19th and March 26th, see the Events link below for an actual schedule). See you there !
