If you go this route I can go ahead and schedule these classes to take
place in #ubuntu-classroom which already has a mechanism for promoting
(via identica/twitter and ubuntuclassroom feed on Ubuntu Planet) and
indexing sessions, and has a lot of people lurking in the channels who
participate.

The Ubuntu Learning project is also worth mentioning and in a state of
limbo. The intent is to develop coursework that loco teams and other
groups can use for teaching user basics, sysadmin basics, dev basics
and more. A half dozen or so sysadmin courses have already been
written but basic Ubuntu sessions have not. There is also a moodle
install at http://learn.ufbt.net/ which may be used. I can provide
more information if there is interest, the only reason this project
has stalled is because we lack volunteers.
