The Free Technology Academy **(FTA - http://www.ftacademy.org) and the
Association of Greek Users and Friends of Free Software, announced today
their partnership, joining the FTA's International Associate Partner
Network. The Network aims to expand the availability of professional
educational courses and materials, covering the concepts and
applications of Free Software and the Open Standards.
The FTA consists of an advanced virtual campus, with various course
modules, which can be followed entirely on-line. The learning materials
are all published under a free license and can be accessed by anyone,
but learners enrolled in the FTA will be guided by professional Teaching
Staff from one of the participating Universities. The FTA aims to enable
IT professionals, students, teachers and decision makers to undertake
accredited professional education modules in Free Software studies.
One of the FTA objectives is to establish a strong relationship with the
free software community and to turn the FTA course materials into an
essential reference. The FTA seeks to educate and promote the adoption
of Free Technologies, without losing sight of the Free Software
community's core purpose of freedom and social transformation.
