Testimonials

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.

LPIC 1 – gain good, all-round, foundational Linux skills and get recognised for it.
Mark FryLPIC 1HP
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
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
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.

Linux Essentials is a great course for anyone wanting to brush up on their informal Linux knowledge or want to start learning Linux for the first time. Highly recommended.
Adam HamflettHead of ComputingPiggott School
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.
Maarten Hoogcarspel Level 3 Technical Support EngineerNetgear
Great course, exa focuses on Linux, but also contains questions on computer hardware.
Kevin GichohiApplications Developer - AVPJPMorgan Chase & Co
The ubiquitous use of Linux in the world today on all types of devices has placed a demand on educational institutes to embed Linux / Open Source into their academic programmes. Schools use Raspberry PIs to teach computing and here at GCU Linux and Open Source tools are an important skill taught to students in a range of undergraduate courses, for example our undergraduate security programmes which prepare them for industry. We are extremely pleased to now partner LPI.

Highly recommend the LPIC 1 certification!
