Course Description

This 5-Day CompTIA Authorized Linux+ course prepares students to pass the 2 Linux+ Exams from CompTIA through a combination of lecture, review, drill sessions, extensive mentoring, practice questions and answer sessions. We are a CompTIA Authorized Training Provider using courseware that is constantly updated to make sure we are covering and synchronized with the latest exam objectives. We will provide the right amount of training needed for you to Test with Confidence. Each attendee will have the opportunity to take the Linux+ certification exams on the last day of class.

Earning CompTIA Linux+ is a stepping stone to vendor-specific training, such as Oracle Certified Associate and Novell SUSE Linux programs. A new benefit for CompTIA Linux+ candidates is that they may choose, at the time they take the exams, to have their exam record forwarded to the Linux Professional Institute. Certification in CompTIA Linux+, Powered by LPI, enables candidates to become certified in LPIC-1 as well, enabling further participation in the LPI program if the candidate chooses.
