Linux Essentials – Great starting point for entry into using Linux.
Owen Murr
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.
Paul Muldoon-Smith
Would I recommend LPI? Absolutely! Linux is now the by far the most ubiquitous operating system on the planet, from the international space station, the internet and on desktop computers, Linux is everywhere. Why would you NOT want to learn Linux. For me the LPI Linux Essentials exam was the perfect tool, it gave me a great point of focus, and booking the exam gave me a target to work towards, as well as the motivation to achieve a pass. The exam objectives took me on journey from understanding …
James Hazelwood
I did this course as a validation of my knowledge, as I work with Debian-based NAS products every day. I’ve learned a lot about the low level stuff and the why (which makes remembering it much easier for me). I can recommend this for anyone starting a career in Linux, as it introduces you and prepares you for different flavours of Linux very well.

I have held the LPIC 2 for a few years now and found it vital in my role as a Linux Sysadmin. I have even been an LPIC 2 trainer and really enjoyed passing on the more advanced topics to students. It is well structured and provides a good grounding in Linux and the more advanced Linux services.
Andy GoldschmidtSenior Technical SupportForLinux
I have been working with Linux for years and wanted a certification to prove I am conversant with the skill. I studied for LPI1 which helped me pass the essential. I would highly recommend this certification.
Michael Afolabi
This is the first Linux Certification I have completed. I found the time invested in this qualification is already paying itself off. The LPIC-1 study guide seems to be a good place to start for the beginner. By downloading a Linux Distribution and getting hands on practice is truly valuable. Reading the book is one thing following it through with a Linux build is another and then finally doing the exam and practising what you learned. I will continue to follow the LPIC path.
Rajesh PatniRegional Technical Support EngineerBrocade
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.
Terrence HoulahanIT ConsultantF1Linux.com
I can definitely recommend LPIC exam because it helped me re-iterate Linux basics and discover new commands and possibilities. Thanks to LPIC, I’m more effective at my work and I feel more confident working with command line. Now I consider taking LPIC-2 exam as well.
Jan PillarEMC
The Linux Essentials is a great foundation level certification to gain the basic understanding of Linux and computer systems. The perfect cert to get young people into Linux! The LPIC Certification has helped UKFast to enhance the methods our engineers use to perform their jobs, and in turn has improved the speed of their development, productivity and the quality of support they are providing to our customers.
