That is a great idea.  But since I'm myself studying MCA and also woking full-time as a Java EE developer, I'd not be able to give Face to Face training.  But would love to help in any way I can through internet.  I even have a spare computer with 256 Meg Ram and 2 GHz CPU.  Would love to donate it if someone is in need of it.  Xubuntu/even Ubuntu without much load would run smoothly on this system.
