The Learn CBT Software

When UNIX was launched thirty-odd years ago, it came with a Computer-Based Training package called learn. Learn ran under UNIX and taught the basic commands and concepts by getting the user to try commands on the real system. As UNIX developed, the lessons got out of date and the learn package was dropped from most systems. We thought this was a great pity, so we pulled the software from the archives, got it running again, and updated the lessons to describe UNIX as it is today.

CBT is a good medium for delivering basic skills, but it has its limits. To make serious use of UNIX and Linux, you will need more knowledge. There are many good books, but if you need to hit the ground running, the quickest way is a taught course led by an expert instructor. That's where our online courses come in. These build on the basics covered by our introductory guides and the learn software to help you become an expert UNIX user.
