Linux Certification Training
 Learn the
exciting operating system Linux. Based on UNIX,
this operating system for PC computers is
growing quickly. Now available by many computer
manufacturers as the operating system for PC
Computers. There are several versions of this
operating system RedHat, Caldera and Mandrake
just to name a few. Although they are all based on
Linux, their graphic interface varies.
Certification is available for RedHat and Caldera.
Many business and Internet providers have switched
to Linux due to its cost (free), reliability and
requirement of computer resources.
Linux can be run alone or added to your present
operating system (Re-partitioning required).
Training in this operating system is perfect for
anyone ranging from a background in Windows NT to
a Novice interested in learning about networking.
Classroom style training on video or CD-ROMS.
