To get ahead of things I'll pitch this today at CoreDial.

I know internally there is probably some interest. Some topics I think
would be of interest...

Linux from the CLI: to explore the basic CLI commands and beyond-basic
usage of them. I think a lot of folks used to GUI linux know what ls
and cp are for, but would possibly have an interest in more advanced
commands and piping them together. For me learning to string things
together was what took the CLI from a mundane chore when other things
were not working to a toolbox that made life easier.

Setting up a LAMP server: This is kind of my goto to get someone
introduced to command line linux. It touches a lot of pieces and you
can finish with a usable product, and it's pretty easy to take that
usable product and continue to install a CMS on top of it to make it
even more approachable.
