Overview

The Linux Professional Institute (LPI) is the premier certification body for vendor independent Linux certifications. This intensive bootcamp is designed to take delegates, both those new to Linux and those with previous experience, through the LPIC-1 process. The package is inclusive of both exams leading to the full LPIC-1 certification.

After completing this course delegates will be able to:

  • Understand the architecture of a Linux system
  • Install and maintain a Linux workstation, including X11 and set it up as a network client
  • Work at the Linux command line, including common GNU and Unix commands
  • Handle files and access permissions as well as system security
  • Perform easy maintenance tasks: help users, add users to a larger system, backup and restore, shutdown and reboot

LPIC-1 Exam 101-500 covers the following topics:

  • System Architecture
  • Linux Installation and Package Management
  • GNU and Unix Commands
  • Devices, Linux Filesystems, Filesystem Hierarchy Standard

LPIC-1 Exam 102-500 covers the following topics:

  • Shells and Shell Scripting
  • Interfaces and Desktops
  • Administrative Tasks
  • Essential System Services
  • Networking Fundamentals
  • Security

The course is structured to give delegates a good understanding of Linux before preparing them to take the first exam on the Thursday of the course. The remainder of the class is then spent concentrating on what delegates need to do in order to pass the second exam and become fully qualified. Exam vouchers are provided at the end of the course, which can be used at any PearsonVUE testing centre, allowing the attendees to prepare for the second exam in their own time, maximising their chances of passing first time. Our dedicated trainers will be available via online forums and email to answer questions and offer their full support and help until delegates have successfully passed both exams. Getting you certified is our primary aim!

Course highlights:

  • All pre- and post-course materials and manuals are provided
  • All exam fees (for both exams) are included
  • Exam revision sessions and practice exams included
  • Full pre- and post-course tutor support
  • Restaurant lunches and refreshments included
  • Training in the centre of the World Heritage City of Bath
  • Free re-sits if you don't pass first time (you just pay the exam cost)

In our opinion there is no better, faster or more cost effective way of becoming LPIC-1 qualified!

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
