Welcome to the Eve University Class Library. All of the classes in the archive were originally put forth by instructors, and the actual recordings were made by volunteers. Without those volunteers the Class Library would not be possible. Volunteers are people like you! Next time you're in a class, consider recording it for the library, and give something back to the community!
Following the lectures mentioned above, it is recommended that new capsuleers continue with lectures on Core Mechanics to form a solid foundation.
The Class Level: indicator is a relative measure of how advanced the class is; lectures on core mechanics are relatively simple with class levels varying between 1 to 3, while more advanced lectures such as Nullsec Alliance Politics or Wormhole PvP tactics may be more suitable for capsuleers with some experience.

Specifically, the course explores the capabilities of specialized drones for extended electronic warfare, combat utility, and logistics, and describes techniques for using these advanced drones effectively.

Boosters, what they are, what they do, and how to use them effectively. How to smuggle them. Techniques you can use to smuggle contraband. Production of boosters and what you'll need to get started.

This class covers a basic introduction to Gallente tech 1 ships, from starter ship to battleship, and including industrials, describing the essential strengths and weaknesses of each. It also includes a summary of essential skills required to fly Gallente ships effectively.

The Q&A afterwards includes a discussion of PvP bookmarks.
The directional scanner (not to be confused with probe-based scanning) is a powerful, but badly-documented, tool. In PvP situations you can use it to detect and investigate incoming enemies or to get the jump on potential targets. In some PvE situations it is still a potential tool to use to protect yourself, particularly in w-space.
Overheating wrings better performance for a short time from your modules at the risk of burning them out. It's an important technique for small gang and solo PvP. This class discusses: how to overheat, what overheating does, heat damage and how to repair it, and combat uses for overheating.
