Legality of free CBT videos

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I am still relatively young and have done some interesting work on some
MS systems. I have taught myself most of what I know; however, much of
that has been in regard to the demand of my current task, and because
the material is many times dealt with haphazardly, I forget a great
deal of it. I want to retrain myself according to a more structured
format - the approach that has worked for other aspects of my life - I
guess that's just my character inclination.

Anyway, practice is the number one way of learning, and I want to do
lots of it. For myself, for further revision, and for others I would
like to create lots of high quality free CBT videos of different IT
taks, which I will offer for free on my website.

I would just like to inquire into the legality of doing this. There
are a lot of training vendors which offer really expensive products.
http://www.trainsignal.com/ - is actually a pretty cheap one, but
it is the example I am most acquainted with.

There are the obvious, extremely more numerous, websites that offer
text/graphic (not video) versions on different Microsoft topics.

As I intend to distribute my material for free - considering the
example of so many training sites, and how-to blogs, is there anything
wrong with doing this? I just don't want to get blasted for
sacrificing to do something that might benefit others as well.

Some of the topics I intend to cover in detail include, Active
Directory, DNS, Group Policy, ISA, Exchange, SQL Server, .NET, and
others when I get to them.

Thanks
