About Ubuntu User Days

User Days was created to be a set of courses offered during a one day period to teach the beginning or intermediate Ubuntu user the basics to get them started with Ubuntu. User Days is a series of online courses where you can:

  • learn how to install Ubuntu
  • find equivalent programs in Ubuntu
  • learn how to get help
  • learn the basics of how to use Ubuntu
  • learn how to get involved in the community

Find out more about the Ubuntu Desktop, Server, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Mobile, UNR, and download them.

Promoting

Tweet/dent and blog about the Ubuntu User Days. Our official hashtag is #UUD<mmm><yy>, so the hash tag for the next, to be held in January 2011, is #UUDJan11. Bring your friends and talk to people about the UUD sessions.

Ubuntu User Days in Spanish

Pablo Rubianes and Diego Turcios run an Ubuntu User Day in Spanish, which typically happens at the same time as the English one. Please check out Dia del Usuario Ubuntu for more information. If you are interested in teaching a course in Spanish, please visit the Dia del Usuario Ubuntu Roadmap.

Ubuntu User Days in other languages

Some interest has been mentioned about doing an Ubuntu User day in different languages. We are looking for people who would be willing to help us with the setup and instruction of User Days in different languages. If you are interested, please contact Chris Johnston.
