I don't think LPI is new to the region, although Matt, Scott, et al. can correct me if I am wrong. I was afraid this thread would turn too much into comments on such, instead of the original poster's (OP's) inquiring of introducing titles based on passing exams after the 301 / LPIC-3 core. We should probably keep focused on if LPIC-3 specialties warrant further titles/recognition. In keeping with the prior commentary, avoiding reserved titles in various locales would probably be ideal. Maybe passing 301 + two to three (2-3) more 300 level exams would bestow the title "LPIC-3 Datacenter" or something? It would be something several would recognize. Also to encourage people to take more than just 301 and LPIC-3 core, maybe we would still re-certify LPIC-1/2 for five (5) years any time anyone passes a 300 level exam. But the LPIC-3 itself would only be good for three (3) years. Any time someone passes a 300 level, it re-certifies LPIC-3 for three (3) more years, while still extending LPIC-1/2 another five (5). This would be consistent with other programs moving to a three (3) year re-certification and passing of one (1) higher-level exam to extend the period of active. Just some ideas. -- bjs P.S. Recertified LPIC-1/2 on Tuesday, and passed Exam 301 on Thursday. [1] Glad to be "active" again.
