Upcoming GeekAustin free classes/groups

Here are the next set of upcoming GeekAustin Free classes.

1) Basic Unix/Linux for DBAs -- this class is geared toward MS SQL Server/Access folks who want to get a better handle on *nix for MySQL/Oracle/Postgresql, etc.
2) MySQL Developer certification prep -- this will be held immediately following the *nix for DBAs class.
3) Basic SQL Queries -- this is an abbreviated version of our basic SQL class. This class deals specifically with queries. The class meets for 5 sessions.

We are also considering hosting a CCNA certification prep. Quite a few folks have been asking for it. If you are interested in adding your name to the list, send me a note at linearb@gmail.com.

Although we call them 'classes', some of the sessions are equal part class and equal part study group. We are finding that, with the more advanced topics, many of the folks bring considerable experience to the group. Adopting a more participatory framework allows all to benefit from each other's experience.
