Additionally, anyone who is seeking a fundamental understanding of the Linux operating system would benefit from this course.

Qualifications:

This course, along with the skills taught in the SUSE LINUX Administration (Course 3037) and Advanced SUSE LINUX Administration (Course 3038) courses, prepare you to take the Novell® Certified Linux® Professional (Novell CLP) certification Practicum Exam. The Novell CLP is the certification for people interested in becoming Linux administrators.

The Novell CLP Practicum Exam is a hands-on, scenario-based test where you apply the knowledge you have learned to solve real-life problems—demonstrating that you know what to do and how to do it.
