I used to run a training company... I hate to be harsh here, but I've 
found that if skill acquisition isn't self directed and self motivated 
then you're just throwing money away on training. If the employee is new 
to the workforce, then it's apropos to have just the basics down and it's 
probably worth the risk to train 'em. If they're a seasoned worker and 
they're not babbling on about Linux this and Linux that, then they 
probably don't have the self directed interest to make your money 
worthwhile...

Just my (cynical) 2c worth...
