I was at a CFUnited a couple years ago and Adobe was talking about a new 
plan they had started that offered Adobe products for free to 
educational institutions. I haven't heard much beyond that but I doubt 
it would take too much more then a phone call to them if an Educational 
Institution would be interested in teaching about Adobe products.

I've been teaching a class in CFML at my local CC for many years (5?) 
now. I've been meaning to post the curriculum online for quite some 
time, but haven't done it yet.

I start teaching again in just over a week. So maybe now is a good time. =)

Warm regards,
