This is a great step in the right direction. Could we make this available online at no charge? 15:13:56 #info When companies are unsure of participating in the first place, it is difficult to get them to fund training in the first place. 15:14:55 #info Clyde responds that we don't want to replace proper training in the market place. We are focusing on entry level training. 15:19:13 #info We use a 2 tier model based on EDX college platforms. We launched a pre course about cloud architecture. It's in the $100-200 range. 15:22:59 #action Clyde will forward the information on how to connect to the ODL introductory training. 15:24:29 #info Clyde: We try to have a heavy hands on solution with the students performing practical exercises. 15:27:26 #info Beau: I would look at training on other things than just OpenFlow and OVS. Not everyone is interested in OVS and OpenFlow. NETCONF and BGP would most valuable. 15:27:39 #info Several AG members agreed. 15:28:08 #info Brain F would like to assist Clyde by putting him in touch with some university instructors. 15:29:19 #info Clyde will send a registration code that will allow a sneak peek of the training so he can get feedback. 15:30:47 #info Orange is also doing a training program. They will get back to the AG regarding the ability to share the training. 15:33:46 #topic Dave Lenrow speaks about Software Defined IT 15:34:16 #info We are still developing and deploying Intent Based Networking. 16:04:12 #info Presentation is available in the Wiki 16:05:42 #info We still have a lot of work to do to flesh out this technology. 16:07:51 #info Dave announced that there would be more about this and a deep dive available at the ODL Summit 16:08:10 #topic ODL Summit 16:08:42 #info Phil: We will try to get the AG together at the Summit for a Face to Face. 16:09:17 #endmeeting
