I was thinking about a way to bring Ubuntu to the bigger public, since it has great advantages for people in the lower income class that only use a PC for basic usage. They pay for a windows licence without actually needing windows because 95% of what they do is in a browser and the other 5% is typing a word document or making a simpel Excel sheet. So for these people something like Ubuntu is ideal, they can prolong the life of their old PC or laptop with Ubuntu and thus saving extra money. And as we all know, saving money is not only interesting for the lowest of income but for most of us.

But when I talk to people they don't want to use Ubuntu because they know Windows and they don't know this, they'll complain about having to adapt to windows 8 but adapting to Ubuntu seems a bridge too far.

But what if someone in the neighborhood gave simple Ubuntu courses. Teaching people about Ubuntu, stuff like:

• What is an OS
• What is Ubuntu
• How do I obtain Ubuntu
• How do I install Ubuntu
• How do I set up my email in Ubuntu
• How do I make a text document in Ubuntu
• How do I update my facebook wall in Ubuntu
• ...

Simple basic PC usage, but within Ubuntu.
But as much as I would like to work for free all day, I can't do this for free for people outside of my social circle. So I was wondering if it is possible to make a business and make money with giving Ubuntu courses, or are their steps to be taken before this is possible. However...

• Do I need an Ubuntu or Canonical license?
• Do I need to get a certificate?
• Do I have to make some kind of deal or contract with Canonical?

Just to be clear this is all just an idea in my head at this point, I'm just gathering information. I'm not a teacher at a school, just a programmer that is thinking about options in life.

Thanks in advance!
