<div>The is a Linux training coming in September from 3rd-15th by
Fossfa, Tanzania and I encourage all staff who are interested in open
source software especially Linux to consider attending this training. If you
not able to spare the time you can start Do-It-Yourself while waiting for guys
to come near your city by using ict@innovation available at <a href="http://www.ict-innovation.fossfa.net/wiki/public-wiki/foss-certification-training-material/lpi-testing-engines" target="_blank">http://www.ict-innovation.fossfa.net/wiki/public-wiki/foss-certification-training-material/lpi-testing-engines</a> and
also this site is good <a href="http://www.linuxcertification.co.za/lpi-study-manual" target="_blank">http://www.linuxcertification.co.za/lpi-study-manual</a></div>
<p style="font-size:13px;color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif">Certification
exam is optional and a separate cost as you have to go to a test centre i.e
Prometric or Pearson Vue to take this exam. The Fossfa facilitators
have offered a reduced cost of maybe approx. $65 to $95 to allow
attendees sit the exam in Arusha. </p>

<div><span style="font-weight:bold">1.0 About LPIC Program</span><br>The
Linux Professional Institute Certification (LPIC) program is designed to
certify the competency of IT professionals using the Linux operating system
and its associated tools. It is designed to be distribution neutral,
following the Linux Standard Base and other relevant standards and
conventions. The LPIC program is designed in multiple levels. Determining
which tasks were suitable to each level was done using a "Job Task Analysis"
(JTA) survey. As with all of the LPIC exam development processes, the JTA was
developed and executed using recognized psychometric processes, to ensure its
relevance and high quality. LPIC Program has three certifications; LPIC-1:
Junior Level Linux Certification, LPIC-2: Advanced Level Linux
Certification and LPIC-3: Senior Level Linux Certification.</div></div></div>
