The Surprising Strength of Vulnerability – how can tech companies attract women employees?

Posted on 25th November 2016 by Rebecca Hunt

At Future Cert, one of our mission statements is to attract more women to careers in Linux or Open Source in general. The lack of women in the industry (read, serious lack) is not confined to Open Source, it goes across the tech industry. A few months ago an article caught our eye on LinkedIn,[…]

Testimonials

I would recommend the LPI certification as an excellent way to get into Linux and learn all the basis, and more. The certification itself is very useful to prove a good Linux knowledge to potential new employers.

Great course, really helped me get a better handle on Linux. I will be progressing through the others.
Lee ThomasSystem AdministratorMulticom Products Ltd
I have held the certification of LPIC 2 for a month now, Its a great cert to have and I can see a definite improvement in my skills from this time a year ago, LPI is defiantly the way to go I think as a sys admin, Any issues questions I can help with for other people studying for this exam don’t hesitate to contact me.

I can highly recommend LPIC 1 as a great entry level qualification into the world of Linux. Although I had extensive knowledge before going through the course I still learned on ways to improve my workflow and it introduced me to some concepts I didn’t think of doing before. LPIC 1 is the ideal qualification for an entry level Linux Administrator or even the Experienced Administrator looking to refresh their skill set and update their knowledge. I am definitely looking to progress to LPIC 2 & 3.…

One of the main reasons I selected LPI was that the courses are not distribution-specific. They give you knowledge in all areas. A good example of this that both rpm and deb package formats are taught and at no point is one recommended above the other. Another area where LPi scores is in the Linux networking area where this extensive topic has been split over a number of sections rather than have one large section.

Great course, exa focuses on Linux, but also contains questions on computer hardware.

Working as a consultant, there’s no guarantee that you’ll work with the same flavour of Linux all the time. This shop might be Ubuntu, the next shop Red Hat… The LPIC certifications require, and evidence, competency with Red Hat and Debian families of Linux. If you have to wear many Linux hats and they’re not all Red, get LPIC-2 certified.

Yes, as a Linux Systems Operations Administrator, I can show my LPI certifications to show that I have a lot of professional experience working with Linux Servers. Certifications are very valuable when changing jobs.
Dennis ArslanLinux Systems Operations AdministratorRackspace
I am pleased to commend the LPIC 1 certification as an essential starting point for any professional on a Linux based career path. At the UK Open University we have been pleased to link our introductory Linux academic module to the LPIC 1 as this has offered our students potential career enhancement.
Andrew SmithLecturer in NetworkingThe Open University
I would recommend LPI Certification as one of non distribution related Linux certification. I learnt many new things despite I’ve been involved in Linux for over 10 years now and it is a great opportunity to challenge yours abilities.
