The Linux Foundation is launching a new, free online training course designed to help teach technology professionals about quantum computing and understand the implications of the emerging technology.

The course, Fundamentals of Quantum Computing, is a partnership between the Linux Foundation and World Bank that provides an understanding on how quantum computing can be used to solve complex decisions beyond current computer capabilities, as well as the possible use cases for the technology.

According to the organizations, the new course takes about three hours to complete, and should be of particular interest to public sector leaders, CIOs, and technology teams in charge of public service delivery and digital economy infrastructures and platforms.

Those interested in the course should have a working knowledge with how computers work and the current use of on-premise and cloud computing.

The course discusses the current capabilities of quantum computing, current use cases and prospective future applications while emphasizing security advantages and dangers around communication and encryption, the organizations say.

In addition, the course dispels some of the myths around quantum computing, explaining exactly what the technology is capable of at the moment and why tech professionals should understand and embrace it, according to a news release.

Clyde Seepersad, senior vice president and general manager of training and certification at the Linux Foundation, says the time to learn quantum computing is now.

“Now is the time to start teaching folks around the world about quantum computing in order to ensure that the policy implications are thought through and that the requisite talent pool is nurtured to support this technology as it grows,” Seepersad says. “The World Bank has proven to be a valuable partner in this endeavor, recognizing the need and taking a leadership role in ensuring educational resources are available around quantum computing to everyone.”
