Looks like the Linux Foundation now ranks as a competitor of LPI: http://training.linuxfoundation.org/certification
About Linux Foundation Linux Certification Linux Foundation certifications give you the a way to differentiate yourself in a job market that's hungry for your skills. We've taken a new, innovative approach to Linux certification that allows you to showcase your skills in a way that other sysadmins will respect and employers will trust. Learn More. They now run two certification programs: the Linux Foundation Certified System Administrator (LFCS) and the Linux Foundation Certified Engineer (LFCE) ones. Details on: http://training.linuxfoundation.org/certification/lfcs and http://training.linuxfoundation.org/certification/lfce Let me point this out to you. There is stated the following: «Certificants who complete the necessary Continuing Education requirements on time will have their applicable Certification extended for an additional 24 months on the expiration date of their Certification.» [...] «Approved Continuing Education activities include: Advanced training courses from The Linux Foundations Developer and/or Enterprise curriculum (designated with a Linux Foundation course code of 300 or higher, e.g. LFD320 or LFS426). Approved training from another provider, e.g. from a Linux Foundation Authorized Training Partner or from an established Linux training provider such as Red Hat, Oracle, IBM, HP, SUSE and other similar programs.» There is no explicit mention of LPI.
