Linux Certifications Can Pay Off Big

Linux Certifications Can Pay Off Big

There are currently five significant Linux certification programs:


CompTIA's Linux+;

the vendor-neutral LPIC (Linux Professional Institute Certification);

Novell Inc.'s CLP (Certified Linux Professional) and CLE (Certified Linux Engineer);

Red Hat Inc.'s certifications; and

Sair Linux's LCP (Linux Certified Professional).

Of course, by itself a certification doesn't say anything. Given a choice between experience and certification, most employers and companies looking for an integrator will take experience every time. That said, though, a certification can open doors, and that's exactly what you have to do to get any job.
