Ruby on Rails.

Core product is also Free Software (AGPL) but most choose to use Instructure's hosting because of all of the extensions and 3rd party integrations they deal with automatically for you, not to mention the actual hosting needs (disk space, etc)

The college I work for requires transcripts for almost all of its positions, including career service type jobs like admin assistants, etc.

Medical fields have it (state licensing board exams), law has it (the bar exam), etc.

While I like 'em they are a bit too small for highway use, if only due to top speeds, etc. If I could buy a new version of my '88 Mazda B2200 pickup tho...

Not sure how it works in Canada, but here in Florida to get a handicap permit you take a doctors note to the DMV .... Granted once you have that if HR tries to stop you from parking in a legal handicap space, that is a different issue (and not legal in US, probably not Canada)

Dunno about this, but Cisco has offered a LPI cert prep course via NetAcademy for quite some time, and it uses Ubuntu as its distro (and has a pretty freaking awesome browser based VM that runs a system for doing labs, etc in)
