Just my opinion, but why not just read some books (there are many on Linux)and use the OS (trial/error), instead of spending money on certification?

i am currently the unix bible, while it by far dosent cover everything, it gives me a good start, well more than linux 4 dummies, The main reason i want certifaction, is to become more employable.. TY skottieb

The best way to learn the OS is the man pages, makes you search harder than books, and you learn things that aren't in the books. Certs are worthless unless you have 0 experience, and no connections.
