The pdf from the Linux Foundation is a living document, but it would be a good idea for them to go over it again to ensure that the content is consistent! Screening trainees before the training course would be a good idea: you need to be up to speed with the cli!

The course is very well structured and covers a lot of ground. It's very dense, but that's also the aim of the course. The trainer was great throughout the session. He really took the time to answer questions.
