curriculum on open office

I belong to an international company helping schools (for children ages 13 - 17) with their computer curriculum. Currently, most of our materials are based on MS Office applications. Are there any credible institutions offering OpenOffice-based material? We would like to help many schools who could not afford the MS licenses.

Exactly, what are you looking for? If you want to make curriculums, at OOextras website there are many templates you can use:

Thanks for your reply. Actually, I'm not looking for tools or templates for making the curriculum, but I'm looking for the curriculum itself. Would you happen to know if there are available curricula on open source technology, linux, or Open Office? Our objective is to educate young students, form 13 to 17 years old, about open source alternative. Thanks.
