Are you looking for speakers or is this an invitation?

I am looking for a speaker for the said workshop.

Is the transpo free? And is there any equipments available like computers, projectors, microphone and internet connection at the said place? And is there a fee for the speaker? I can contact some of my colleagues (or even myself) if you can give more details. I also think that it's much better to also post it on the Filipino Forums. 

Is the transpo free?

We could probably give subsidy for the transportation but not that much because our organization also has very little source of funds and funds itself.

is there any equipments available like computers, projectors, microphone and internet connection at the said place?

If you referring to possibility of hands on per se per participant in the venue I think that is absent and not possible at the moment.

There will definitely be a projector and microphone.

As for internet connection we can try to arrange for it.

And is there a fee for the speaker?

We can include a certain amount of fee for the speaker but we just hope that it can also be part of service for the youth since this will also equip cause oriented organizatios.

By the way our website is at http://www.broodonline.com

Posted this on the FIlipino Forum... I tried posting it before but I cannot find it because am looking for Philippines. 

If theres an internet connection, and atleast P1,000 fee (with free transpo, in a way that atleast I can still absent on my work) I can teach the very basic of joomla and how to use it in many ways. I am very willing to give the lesson. I will prepare a 3-4 module lesson that can be divided by time to time giving the students a time for a break.

I have created lots of joomla websites

samples are
http://www.pointpinas.com
http://www.altriontechnologies.com
http://www.altrionmarine.com

I also have done many hacks in open source community, example is the bot support in fireboard forum (which is now avaiable on the fireboard official forum)

and many more.

Thanks and I think that will be reasonable enought.  Where will you be coming from by the way?

I have also created some joomla sites:

http://www.broodonline.com
http://www.ncya.net
http://www.baliuag.net
http://www.suswatch.org

But I am not very good at teaching actually.. it is not my specialty 

I will be comming from marikina, about an hour away (due to traffic, hehehe). It's not that I'm really into money, it's just I want to compensate an income if I will do absent that day. By the way, can you please specify what do the students expect from the speaker? And what are the lessons needed to be taught?

I understand that.  Well the training is being done in order for them to learn on how to start a Joomla site; install modules, components and mambots; modify default templates and integrate other components including administration.

Since our organization has various cause related projects and we have a Sponsorship-for-Website fund generation mechanism their knowledge will enable the organization to offer these sponsorship-for-website and related services to more organizations and individuals.  In turn it will generate more fund for organizational cause and a possible livelihood for them to aid them personally.

We have many members who are out-of-school youth or who have no stable job that is why through this we also want to help them so that they can make a difference.

Well, thats good enough to hear. I am also an undergraduate myself. ^_^

Well you can also join our organization and without prejudice to your speakership requirements.
