### What?

The Ask Ubuntu classroom is a series of free sessions where an Expert teaches attendees some of their skills in a variety of fields.

### Where?

The sessions are going to be held in the [Classroom](http://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/663/ask-ubuntu-classroom) on [Ask Ubuntu Chat](http://chat.askubuntu.com)

### When?

This post is to organise the calendar. If you want to hold a session, add your name and the topic to the calendar, and let one of the Moderators know to Schedule the Event in the Ask Ubuntu Chat System.

## For Attendees


If you plan to attend a session, please register for the event. Transcripts of all events will be available to the public afterwards.

Take a look at the [chat schedule](http://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/info/663/ask-ubuntu-classroom?tab=schedule) for estimated durations. Sessions may run over the alloted time, but we expect them to be fairly close.

## For Speakers

If you want to hold your own session, please come and talk to one of the [moderators](http://askubuntu.com/about) in the [Ask Ubuntu chat](http://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/201/ask-ubuntu-general-room).

We expect sessions to take between 30 and 120 minutes. You should make sure your material fits in that time-frame. You should also be [familiar][1] with our chat system. Sessions should generally relate to the topic of Ubuntu in the same way as questions on the site should. You can of course hold session on topics such as Inkscape or Perl, but they should assume Ubuntu users as the target audience.

## For organisers

Please discuss organisational issues here:

Keep in mind that you can just leave messages. It's much easier to read than a huge comment thread on this question :-)
