I just got a job as lead developer and I thought it would be best to seek the expertise of my peers (that's you) before proceeding!

I had the opportunity to review my designers and they are mostly photoshop pros with dreamweaver as their main HTML/CSS editor. A more visual experience.

I, on the other hand, have had much experience hand-writing all my code. From HTML markup to CSS.

From my understanding, my designers have basic CSS knowledge and I am considering a simple 101 style set of tutorials for them to get a better grasp of markup before I moved into more advanced topics like accessibility and microformat markup.

We need to get started up quickly. Do you think it's okay to dive into LESS from the get-go?
