IBM Helps NIIT to Establish Linux Competency Center
IBM announced the opening of a Linux Competency Center which it has donated to NUST Institute of Information Technology (NIIT), Rawalpindi. This Linux Competency Center will help customers, students, developers and business partners in Pakistan to experience and test Linux hands-on and to explore the benefits of open standards-based computing. The Teach the Teachers program will span several Universities and teachers will be trained at NIIT. In addition IBM is extending its Scholars Program to offer free software, course material and access to IBM Portals to major Universities in Pakistan.
We covered this before. As said before, Zeropoint.it loudly applauds initiatives of this kind. It's pretty exiting to be this close to the action. Not only IBM believes that "open standards and open source technologies are a key driver of collaborative innovation"!
