What Other Students Are Saying About Our Courses:

• A great in-depth course over all of the objectives, I was easily able to follow along with the lectures and the hands-on sections in the Linux terminal. Thank you. (Collin P., 5 stars)

• I found it useful to have both lectures and live demonstrations. I have used different distros over the years but always for specific purposes so never learned a solid baseline. For this course, I built some VMs using a virtual box to follow along with and eventually moved toward a KVM solution on an old machine to practice with a hypervisor for containers and other VMs. I think this course along with practice and understanding concepts will get you through the exam and started in Linux Administration roles. (Justin S, 5 stars)

• I have a bit of Linux knowledge, through school, and choosing Linux to be my primary OS. I am about halfway or so through the course and have learned a lot. As for the poor reviews on this video, take notes, study, and implement, repeat. I did not have any issues with either instructor in this course. I also recommend additional study material while you're not at the computer, to keep your knowledge well rounded. Great course! (Gregory C., 5 stars)
