ORGANIZATION: Linux Expo of Southern Califronia

  • 5 people are interested

SCALE is a non-profit volunteer organized free and open source software conference held annually in Southern California. In addition to the advanced training classes, SCALE always offers a hands on training class and installfest for new users to Linux and Open Source.

Each year the class has filled to capacity, to help offer additional seats this year we are looking for additional proctors and users with Linux/Open Source experience who can help students in the class or installfest as issues arise.
