<title>OpenStack Training Guides Are Under Construction</title>
<para>We need your help! This is a community driven project to provide the user group community
access to OpenStack training materials. We cannot make this work without your help.</para>
<para>There are a few ways to get involved. The easiest way is to use the training guides. Look at
the end of each section and you will see the Submit a Bug link. When you find something that can
be improved or fixed, submit a bug by clicking on the link.</para>
<para>If you want to get involved with the effort around OpenStack community training, read on,
here are the options:</para>

<para>We are currently working on creating the Associate Training Guide. It is the
first of four training guides. We are using the Install Guide, Administration
Guides, Developer Documentation, and Aptira supplied content as the sources for
most of the Associate Training Guide. The basic idea is that we use XML include
statements to actually use the source content to create new pages. We aim to use
as much of the material as possible from existing documentation. By doing this
we reuse and improve the existing docs. The topics in the Associate Training
Guide are in a bunch of KanBan story board cards. Each card in the story board
represents something that an Associate trainee needs to learn. But first things
first, you need to get some basic tools and accounts installed and configured
before you can really start.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Getting Accounts and Tools:</emphasis> We can't do
this without operators and developers using and creating the content. Anyone can
contribute content. You will need the tools to get started. Go to the <link

<para><emphasis role="bold">Pick a Card:</emphasis> Once you have your tools ready
to go, you can assign some work to yourself. Go to the <link

>Training Trello/KanBan storyboard</link> and assign a card / user story from
the Sprint Backlog to yourself. If you do not have a Trello account, no problem,
just create one. Email seanrob@yahoo-inc.com and you will have access.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Create the Content:</emphasis> Each card / user story
from the KanBan story board will be a separate chunk of content that you will
add to the openstack-manuals repository openstack-training sub-project.
