5.0 out of 5 stars
excellent Linux certification resource
Great resource outlines the requirements and benefits of the different Linux certification providers (including some newcomers too!). A nice table in the back organizes the information- just what I needed to decide how to beef-up my resume! Thanks!

Started well, but lost focus,
By NetAdmin (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Get Linux Certified and Get Ahead (Paperback)
The book started well -- FAQ on why certification for Linux is a good thing; introduced the different type of Cert. by different distribution vendors. However, the book lost focus from Part two onwards. This should not be an adult education book, the assumption was a big turn-off. This is not a study guide either -- the whole chapter on study secrets read likes a "copy and paste" out of a second rated study-tips website. Speed reading, mnemonics and mind map have little, if at all, benefits helping anyone passing technical certifications. Subjects such as asking for a pay rise after certification, moving up, job hunting .... are better left with other books. Pros: the References at the back are useful. Cut the size of the book in half, focus on only the essentials, then it may earn another point.

This book is about twice the size it needs to be.,
By Peter Allen (Adelaide South Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Get Linux Certified and Get Ahead (Paperback)
I bought this book to get info on the various Linux certifications that are available... I NEEDED that information right now, and the book delivered - Particularly by using the companion website... but this book could have been half the size ( and presumably, half the price) the information of exam cramming techniqies etc is avaialble elsewhere and quite unnecessary.I suspect that this book will date quite rapidly... its a read once and give to a library type book... you wont refer to it again...

Linus vs. Windows,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Get Linux Certified and Get Ahead (Paperback)
Surprised to have gotten this book so cheaply !I suppose amazon does not permit bogus sales for 1$ ! Linux is a necessary things for when programmers are limited with Windows that is for mainly the common user ! Have not read yet, just put it in my library ! George.
