Hello Everyone,

Greetings. :)

Christoph, thank you for your e-mail.  :)

> > I've just created a survey to collect information from ambassadors regarding RH certifications and Fedora Training. This is a small survey and please spend few minutes to complete it. :)

> > The idea behind this survey is to collect information from ambassadors about their desire to learn Fedora and get certified from RH. After the collection of data, we can ask for the support from FAmSCo and come up with a better solution.

> it seems when I replied to your mail, I took the second step instead of the first. I told you that I think that the "desire to learn Fedora" and "get certified for RH" are two unrelated things and we should rather focus on Fedora.

Excellent questions.  :)

> But let me first ask you: What was your - or David's - expectation when you set up the survey? What is the goal you are trying to reach and where do you see FAmSCo's role? How can we support you?

My goal was to see the personnel development for the Fedora Ambassadors interested in learning more about Fedora via #fedora-classroom & study as a seed for further development and growth in 2012.  :)

The goal of the survey "Training Ideas for FAms" - http://lk.fedoracommunity.org/fam_rh_certification/ was to poll the Fedora Ambassadors for technical information which would be useful for their own increase in knowledge in order to accomplish their own goal.  :)

Via the results of https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aplp6tv7mdWBdEVGRlJNY0dKQkp2bUJKbEJlVEtpOGc#gid=0 I strongly believe that some good ideas for topics to help empower our fellow Fedora Ambassadors via sources such as #fedora-classroom and others sources will follow.  There are twenty four (24) people who have entered content of being interested in process and the results are interesting to read.  :)

Lastly, I believe that to remember the beginners is very important.  Especially, those who look for direction and guidance to be an effective ambassador are a necessary foundation and highly likely a refresher to re-establish the foundations for doing the right thing are needed as well as requisite for being able to conduct future contributions.  :)

I think that with a new year, FAmSCo could consider something new in order to take care of the Fedora Ambassadors especially for education, collaboration, and communication.  These choices are not easy but difficult, however these choices will provide lights of opportunity, if considered for support.  :)

> I'm sorry for not asking these obvious questions in first place.

Through questions come answers as well as may be more questions in order to make a clearer understanding.  :)
