Hi :)

I need the LPIC-1 certificate for a new job and I’m looking for resources to study for it.

I’m not a sysadmin nor did I ever study anything in that field, but I work with Linux daily and have all my projects at home running on Linux. In total, I’ve been using unix-based systems for more than 20 years.

Still, I’d like to make sure I’m getting through the tests the first time. Can you recommend any video courses? (I think video is easiest for me) Other tips for different resources are appreciated as well :)

Thanks!

    Having taken that test before, I would definitely get a study guide and work your way through it. Some of the questions get kind of esoteric and very specific, so even if your a Linux master, this is a thing where you should be studying for the test, rather then real life.

      this is a thing where you should be studying for the test, rather then real life.

      Like so many professional certification exams, not just in computer skills. I had a construction contractor complaining to me about the same problem with his certification exam: exam questions that don’t cover real life scenarios and even expect you to give answers that don’t make sense outside the exam.
