Hi at,
So glad to hear there are people out there specifically training
sysadmins like this.
There are a few of us trying to build up a syllabus, hopefully going
from Sysadmin 101 to beyond to help people both self-teach, and
potentially provide some form of formal material to use for teaching
people. We would love it if you were able to bring some of the wisdom
from your experiences to the initiative. We're trying to feel our way
through this to some extent, most of us only with the experience of
having trained people on the job rather than anything more formal.
The main site is here: http://www.opsschool.org/en/latest/ and we have
a github repository here: https://github.com/opsschool/curriculum/

This is my third year training sysadmins. I really enjoy it. I love
the questions about how does it work and will this or that break it?
My sysadmins sometimes find new and different ways to break a
product. I enjoy the creative thinking.
The first major public course I taught was at USENIX ATC two years
ago. I'll never forget it: after each break, there were less students
in the class. 24 at start, 10 or 11 at end. I remember thinking,
"Oh, no, it's melting!" Since then I've worked very hard to make my
classes hands on and engaging. Here is some feedback I got recently:
Aleksey (trainer) was one of the best hands-on teachers
I've experienced in a long time. He is very knowledgeable
about the subject, patient and keeps the class focused. His
course materials including documentation, examples and
exercises were very comprehensive. I certainly could have
gained from his teachings and materials greatly at the onset
of my learning [software X] many months ago.
I know I am on the right track. I really enjoy this kind of work.
Doing private trainings takes me to some unusual and beautiful places.
Thanks for letting me share that.
I really appreciate being part of this community, and being able to
contribute to it.
Yours truly,
-at
