Migrating to free or open source software (FOSS) may lead to small difficulties at the beginning, because the lack of knowledge of the new tools; this is not because FOSS is difficult, but for the same reason why you are not so good at driving a new car as you were with your old one: they are two different things! For this precise reason, the LibreSchool project provides a wide training offer, targeted to people whose occupation is mainly didactics (teachers) or to who will maintain the laboratory in function.

The technical implementation of the project includes the following steps: Audit the lab hardware, evaluating its compliance to the technical requirements of the project by checking the PCs and its networking; Conclusion of pending works to fulfull technical compliance of the lab; Deployment of the server system; Deployment of the client PCs in semi-automatic mode; Quality check/test based on the technical objectives of the project. Deployment of the server, client PCs and the lab network is usually completed before the beginning of the training session, so that the lab can be available in its final form also for the training purposes.
