Canonical (and the wider Ubunutu community) are currently developing an
Ubuntu Desktop course. It's not finished yet, but we're working on it a
chapter at a time. You can see the first drafts of some chapters here:- 

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training

Note: It really is early on in the development of this course, and it it
intended to be collaboratively edited, so if you see any omissions or
errors then you can check out the changes and modify them yourself. The
instructions for doing his are on this page:- 

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training/KnowledgeBase 

Alternatively make a list of gotchas and mail them to me and I'll make
sure they get considered/included/passed-on as appropriate.
