I'll have to toss my hat in on this one as well. Although each package does have it's unique tools/interface, I quite often do tutorials designed for other packages. Once you get familiar with your software, its pretty easy to adapt them to fit the tools you have. Some of the only issues I could foresee would be NURBS, Sub-Divided Surfaces (HyperNURBS and other such names). Not all packages support these.. but most do at this point. Even so, general principals and techniques transcend the software. Lighting, coloration, composition and basics will go a long ways in getting folks modeling and rendering better images. There are many among us who have exposure to a classic artistic based education. Myself, I do not. I have just picked some things up from friends, books and keeping my eyes open to the world around me. Having a place like this would be a valuable resource to add to my collection.
