I just learned that Channel9 has put up a new site for a SharePoint Learning Center for SharePoint 2010. A number of people are responsible for this, including Paul Stubbs, Girish Raja, Steve Fox, Donovan Follette, and Chris Mayo. It looks to be a video based course center with topics on SharePoint 2010 like:

1. Getting Started with SharePoint 2010
2. SharePoint 2010 Developer Roadmap
3. Visual Studio 2010 Tools for SharePoint 2010
4. UI Enhancements
5. Lists and Schemas
6. LINQ to SharePoint
7. Client Object Model
8. Workflow
9. Services Architecture
10. Accessing External Data
11. Enterprise Content Management
12. Extending Search
13. PerformancePoint Services
14. Sandboxed Solutions
15. SharePoint 2010 Security

The SharePoint community and Microsoft is rolling out well ahead of the SharePoint 2010 beta release a number of resources to help developers come up to speed quickly on SharePoint 2010.

For the Channel 9 site, they are first rolling out video examples of all of these sessions and then in about a week or 2 after the beta is released they will release labs with updated code that is compliant with the beta release.
