The LPI Certification Is The De Facto Standard For Linux Professionals
Copyright (c) 2009-2010 Frank Pines
Today Linux is a very potent tool for a successful project in a highly competitive marketplace.
With its certification programs, the Linux Professional Institute (LPI) has constantly raised the bar of excellence. It has continuously provided support to Linux professionals to meet the industry demands for expert skills. LPI has been acknowledged universally as a leader in providing professional help with Linux, Open Source, and Free Software.
The Linux Professional Institute Certification (LPIC) program has been designed to recognize the capabilities of IT professionals, who have proven themselves capable of operating within the Linux operating system. These certificates are distributed to computer professionals in hundreds of cities around the world.
LPI intends to develop and recognize important Linux and Open Source talent around the globe, by providing complete and high standard tests.
LPI offers a formal and standardized program both for students and training centers alike. These programs improve the quality of market and also arm the students with powerful certifications that can be used to enhance their career prospects.
The LPI Certification Program has been developed by Linux professionals and IT institutions, around the world. The Linux Professional Institute depends on the response reports it receives from many of the skilled professionals, who work with Linux each and every day.
Interestingly, the Linux Professional Institute is independent of vendors and has no commitment bias in regard to its service. This has led to diverse and multiple techniques to the general design of the test. It has become one of the most comprehensive and global exams presented anywhere in the world.
The LPI certificate is one of the most respected and requested job requirements, among computer professionals and major organizations, for applicants seeking IT jobs. Many independent companies, outside of LPI, have enhanced the Linux certification program and this is possible because there is no totalitarian authority controlling the Linux operating system.
The vital distinction between LPI and other such programs is that, LPI has been incorporated as entirely vendor-independent and distribution neutral.
The largest corporations in the world have recognized the exam standard and the tests have become a reflection of the standards these corporations expect from their professional IT staffers.
The LPI certification is based on three levels:
Junior Level Administration (LPIC-1): this level consists of two tests the 101 and the 102. They can be taken in any order. This level expects you to work at the command line, execute fundamental maintenance, and set up a workstation with a connection to a network.
Advanced Level Administration (LPIC-2): the candidate needs to pass the 201 and 202 exams to qualify at this level. These tests can also be taken in any order. Also the candidate has to pass the Junior Level Test. You will need to govern an average-sized website by using Linux or Microsoft servers. You will also oversee your juniors and then report to senior management.
Senior Level Administration (LPIC-3): LPI's Certification Program concludes with the LPIC-3 exam. The test papers are 301 and 302.
The LPI exams are computer-based tests done through Pearson VUE and Prometric. LPI exams are also provided in Japanese, German, Chinese, French, Portuguese and Spanish. It takes about two to five weeks to get the actual LPI certificate, after notification of your pass status.
