The Sun Academic Initiative

This is what Sun has to say about the program, and their willingness to share it with the community!

The Sun Academic Initiative is a program designed to create a collaborative relationship between Sun and academic institutions. Courses delivered through this program will introduce students to Sun Microsystems technologies, prepare them for industry leading certification and equip them with marketable IT job skills.
As part of this program, selected colleges and universities become Authorized Sun Education Centers, enabling those institutions to deliver training on Sun technologies to their students. In addition, students can obtain free access to selected online courses through the Sun Web Learning Center.
The assumption is that your instructors are educational professionals and don't really need train the trainer. What they really need is training on the technology which is what the online training does.
There are no set up or recurring costs. The SAI program, unlike others, is philanthropic. You can choose to run the online training with your students also and then all you need is a browser that can run on any system.
The process is very simple and shouldn't take more than ten minutes to apply. The benefits are HUGE as you will see when you visit:

We at the CRISP applaud Sun's willingness to share this wonderful training with the community and I urge you to take advantage of it!
