You can download an evaluation copy of WAS 7 Base. However, IBM does not offer an evaluation download for WAS 7 ND. This poses a problem for those who want to learn WAS 7 ND. How to solve this problem?
My recommendation is to use the free download of IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment 8.0 Beta. WebSphere technologies are mature and stable. Even WAS 8 ND (Beta) release has reached a high level of stability. It has all the WAS 7 ND functions and more. I have found that WAS 8 ND (Beta) very helpful in not only learning how to use WAS 7 ND, but also practicing on the flexibility management features of WAS 8 ND with Job Manager and Administrative Agent.
Here is the download site for WebSphere Application Server 8 ND (Beta) for Windows.

You can purchase course content from http://www.themiddlewareshop.com.
We will have WebSphere 8 content equivalent to IBM courses.
The site is earmarked to go live in June 2012, but there are modules becomming available for purchase immediately.
