I think Red Hat's certifications get more notice in mainstream society but there are several certifications that are general and non-vendor specific. check out the articles here: http://certcities.com/editorial/features/story.asp?EditorialsID=3 http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,4149,1238301,00.asp http://www.gocertify.com/article/linux_update.shtml
some people will say certification smertification. what you really need is to show the people you know what the hell you are talking about. i say what better way to show people that you know the stuff is to get tested on it by a recognized testing organization. if you really know what you talk about and it is not hype why be afraid to take the test(s) and get certified. not only that but if employers require that somebody be certified, then that will be a 'weed-out' emphasis that will get your resume thrown in the trash quickly. later, Jeremy Bertrand email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------- Original Message ----------- From: Karthik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, 15 Sep 2003 08:52:50 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [brlug-general] Linux Certification > With lot of new jobs opening which require linux > skills, do you guys think its necessary to get > certification?
