The focus of our Linux Training is application of skills learned in the live classroom and during student study. Students train on live servers and have the support of certified instructors during the class. The pace of the training is determined by the student knowledge base and the instructor works with students on an individual basis, training and answering questions. This means that the class time is flexible to any schedule and can work at anyone's pace. Each of the skills students will learn will be required on LPI, Red Hat RHCE or Linux + Certifications. Though this is not a certification course the skills learned will help in certification. Preview a Linux Course
