SYS-ED’s UNIX and Linux Fundamentals training program is 10 days in duration and will be tailored to specific training needs and operational objectives. A lesson plan based upon the standards of the New York State Department of Education will be provided as part of qualifying the subject matter, examples, exercises, and program duration. Educational consultancy topics, inclusive of project specifications also can be incorporated into the program. A program can be dedicated to to a UNIX- or Linux- variant: Solaris, Red Hat, SUSE, Ubuntu, or Android.

For new hires with minimal experience, basic commands, system navigation, and online help is provided.	For business professionals and webmasters the training program can be directed to managing mobile devices or doing first-time application development - Google Android smartphones and tablets.
For personnel that will be supporting UNIX and Linux virtualized operating systems as a front end to cloud computing, the training program can be directed to public and private software infrastructure services.	For experienced computer support personnel, the training program can be directed to commercial enterprise software: IBM, Oracle, or Hewlet-Packard.

SYS-ED's training programs utilize the full complement of delivery medium: distance-learning, web-based, and technology driven classrooms. As part of conducting a training program, subject matter is organized for utilization in courseware as a learning center. In order to accommodate employee workloads and staff in remote geographic locations, component courses can be scheduled over non-consecutive weeks utilizing a combination of classroom training and distance-learning. At the client's discretion, checklist of completed tasks, validation assessment, and a final examination can be utilized.

Footnote 1:
David Silverberg and David Shapiro were both among the first wave of technologist and programmers who evaluated the UNIX operating system and designed and coded C programs. Dave Silverberg was coding programs and reviewing source code and later taught classes at Bell Laboratories. David Shapiro, in conjunction with classmates at Union College and Cornell University, became familiar with the capabilities and long term potential of low level programming languages, and early versions of both UNIX and BASIC.
