+Apache Training (incubating)
+============================
+
+### Purpose
+The purpose of the Training project is to create high-quality training 
material for various projects in an open source form. Up until now everyone who 
wants to offer a Training course for one of the Apache projects needs to create 
her or his own slides/labs and keep them up-to-date. This is a significant 
investment of time and money. This project aims to spread that burden and help 
all Apache projects as we can create shared resources and we can also create 
cross-project trainings.
+
+To sum up, the main goals for this project:
+
+- Develop shared material that can be used for trainings
+- Cross-project
+    - Focused on Apache but also 3rd party projects where it makes sense
+    - Develop “labs” or “hands-on” exercises
 
 Review comment:
   Would it make sense to explicitly list whether or not creating material that 
explains how the foundation itself works is in or outside of the scope of this 
project? (Think Apache Way 101, Apache Media training, ?)
