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.
Aaron SaxtonThe Director of Training and EducationUKFast
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.

I am a veteran of Linux+ and currently work in a RHEL centric telecoms environment. Many people who apply for positions do not have any tangible evidence of the desired level of knowledge and can often be found wanting. LPI certs cover a very wide range of Linux OS administration and protocols which reflects a good understanding of the OS.

To my mind LPI is the best Linux Certification path. Truly distribution agnostic with real content that can be applied in all situations. Anyone with this has the knowledge to delve into and understand any Linux system. A truly useful technical qualification.To my mind LPI is the best Linux Certification path.

Linux Essentials – Great starting point for entry into using Linux.
Owen Murr
I have worked with and taught Linux for over eight years, the majority of my work has been with Debian, Redhat and SUSE in that order. It is so important to have broad base of knowledge. The LPIC certifications tick all of the boxes. I used the LPIC1 & 2 books whilst training my competitor for WorldSkills 2013, he gained the highest point score the UK has achieved in the history of the IT Network Systems Administration competition.
Kevin LargeRemote Training Solutions
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
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 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.
