I think it depends.  Will you be using a specific Distro? RH, SUSE? 
Do you want general linux training or specific to that distro?  If
specific and your using RH or SUSE, I would go to RH or Novell. I have
never attended any linux/unix training so I can not atest to this.  It
is just my opinion.  I am not sure which is better.  I think a blend
would be best.  Have them go to training then do a more "advanced"
in-house training to fill in the gaps.
