Encourage Linux Certifications

From ScotLUG

Jump to: navigation, search

Should we start to encourage people to get Linux Certifications such as the LPI [1] , Novell or Linux+ accreditation?

The more people out there with Linux Certs would encourage the adoption of Linux into the workplace. Trained Linux administrators has been stated as a major stumbling block for organisations adopting Linux.

It may involve building a learning resource for new and existing members to get these certs.

Or possibly having some tutorial sessions for people to do some final cramming before writing.
