4Linux é a primeira a cobrir o conteúdo atualizado da certificação LPI
Publicada em 23/04/2012 às 16:25
A 4Linux sempre em consonância com o universo Linux e Software Livre recebeu, sem grande surpresa, o informativo das atualizações nos exames de certificação do Linux Professional Institute.
A certificação é uma das mais expressivas neste mercado e busca estar sempre de acordo com a realidade dos usuários e profissionais. Devido a isso, as atualizações são frequentes e nem sempre as escolas são capazes de responder com agilidade às demandas de atualização.
A 4Linux se orgulha de ter seus treinamentos Linux de acordo as atualizações propostas pelo exame, mesmo antes de o texto das atualizações ter sido divulgado.
Segundo Rodolfo Gobbi, diretor geral da 4Linux: "Os cursos da 4Linux são constantemente reformulados visando atender as necessidades do mercado. Ficamos sempre muito satisfeitos ao constatar que as nossas mudanças caminharam no mesmo sentido que as de um Instituto detentor de tanto prestígio como o LPI."
Já Gabriela Dias, gerente de treinamentos, ressalta que: "Desde janeiro o essencial da reestuturação de nossos cursos Linux já atendia as novas determinações que o LPI divulga agora, no mês de abril."

1. Changes to LPIC-1 and LPIC-2 Objectives
LPI alumni and registered LPI candidates will know that LPI regularly
revises and updates its certification objectives to ensure technical
currency and industry relevance. Minor revisions are undertaken every
2.5 years with major updates happening at the 5 year milestone.
Revisions to our exam objectives for the 2.5 year mark have been
completed and are available at http://wiki.lpi.org.
New exams reflecting these changes were originally scheduled for
publishing on April 1, 2012 (LPIC-1) and July 1, 2012 (LPIC-2).
However, in order to allow greater time for our candidates, training
partners, and courseware publishers to prepare for these changes we will
publish these new exams at the following dates--July 2, 2012 (LPIC-1)
and August 1, 2012 (LPIC-2).
