Where can groups of programmers (and non-programmers) get courses in linked data? Are there any reputable course/workshop providers?

Not sure where you are based, but I read a few weeks back that Talis are running a series of 'Open Days' in the UK: http://blogs.talis.com/nodalities/2009/11/talis-platform-open-days.php

This is a good tip, however, we're looking for training on specific topics. Maybe Talis offers this kind of thing (or is everything they do product-related?) – brinxmat Jan 11 at 13:07
Yes, we do offer general linked data training. Email me at ian.davis@talis.com – Ian Davis Jan 12 at 21:03
Thanks Ian, I will do that :) – brinxmat Jan 14 at 20:03

Semsphere have a module on Linked Data as a part of their Semantic Technology Professional (STP) certification/training course

TopQuadrant has been offering a semantic web technology course since 2004. While it covers a lot more than linked data, roughly one day of the four day course is dedicated to linked data (in the form of RDF and SPARQL), and linked data plays a key role throughout the course, including the case studies and best practice units on the fourth day. While the course uses TopQuadrant's tool TopBraid Composer for the hands-on part of the course, the content of the course is Semantic Web technology and standards. http://topquadrant.com/training/intro.html

OpenLink Software also offers Linked Data Training with a fundamental focus on Distributed Object Computing and RESTful client-sever computing patterns (what Linked Data is fundamentally about).

Course schedules (on and offline) will soon be published, but you can contact us (email, twitter etc..). If your needs are urgent.
