Linux Essentials – Great starting point for entry into using Linux.
Owen Murr
I studied LPI as I wanted to further my knowledge in Linux. The OS, our company’s platform is ran on, is CentOS. I was to be technical support, but had very little Linux experience. I took the LPI course to further my skills and knowledge and ultimately give myself a better position in my work. The company I work for is Davra Networks. We are provide a platform that allows customers to define, build and bring IoT (Internet of Things) applications. The benefits of having the LPI certification h…

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.

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

I work for BT Security. I wanted a Linux certification to show that I know Linux, However, whilst studying for the LPIC-1 I found out a new thing or two! Secondly, I work with many devices such as Juniper and Checkpoint Firewalls, Proxies, Splunk etc that typically use Linux as their background OS. They usually are slightly different to each other but I found the LPIC covers most variations. Especially the various methods of carrying out service control or adding user accounts. So overall I was …

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.

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.

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.
