linux in the real world

Before “Linux in the Real World,” if you wanted to learn Linux, you had two choices:
(1) spend your precious time searching down free and low-cost resources and cobbling together your own Linux admin curriculum. The result? Hours spent learning bits and pieces with no clear structure, and that don’t teach you the real, practical skills you need on the job, or

(2) drop $2000, $3000, or more on a high-quality classroom course and try (usually unsuccessfully) to convince your employer to help you foot the bill.

But now, there’s a third option…

Linux in the Real World:

Learn WHAT you need, on YOUR time, with experienced instructor support… for a fraction of the cost!

Hi, I’m Jason Cannon, founder of The Linux Training Academy and author of best-selling Linux guides such as Linux for Beginners, Linux System Administration, and dozens more.

One of the biggest problems I saw among my students and readers was this:

“How can I learn the real-world Linux skills I need to level-up my career and stay current with the ever-evolving Linux sysadmin field, without having to mortgage my house to pay for a class?”

I get it. You want to upgrade your system admin skills so you can get a new job or perform better in your existing position…

…without having to take time off work
…without the “bits and pieces” approach many classes teach
…without having to “keep up” or “slow down” to match the course’s pre-set speed
…without having to figure out problems on your own
…without the pain associated with traditional Linux courses!

You just want to learn the Linux skills you’d need to address common on-the-job issues, right? Doesn’t seem like it should be too hard… but the classes and training courses out there were either (1) too expensive or (2) not practical — you’d learn a bunch of unrelated skills and try to figure out how they apply to the real world. No fun!
That’s why I wanted to offer another way — a better way, where you had complete freedom to access the practical information you need at an affordable price, but in a supportive, interactive environment.
Introducing…Your Biggest Linux Training Problems – Solved!

Linux in the Real World

2012-lf_linux_jobs_infographic_2012Here’s what’s going on in the tech world: Employers want Linux experience. According to the Linux Foundation:

Hiring Linux workers is a PRIORITY. 80 percent of recruiters say that finding Linux talent is a priority.

Linux talent is IN DEMAND. Most employers are looking for MORE Linux talent than other positions.

• Linux experts are HARD TO FIND. 85 percent of recruiters say it’s hard to find Linux talent!

•  Linux pros are PAID MORE. 1/3 of companies say they pay more to Linux pros!

But here’s the kicker... Despite the high value and need for Linux pros, companies don’t want to pay for the training to turn existing employees into Linux experts. That means to take advantage of this gold rush, YOU need to pursue your Linux education and training on your own.

Don’t want to pay $3000, $4000 or more to get the training you need to move ahead? Until now, there was no other option. But now, you’ve got…

LINUX IN THE REAL WORLD

As far as I know, no other Linux course offers this level of Instructor access, real-world scenarios, in a self-paced environment — for this low price. If you want to learn Linux Server and Command Line skills, there is NO BETTER COURSE AVAILABLE. 

“This course has about the same amount of lab and course work as the in-class training that costs $3K to $5K, at a fraction of the cost. That is pretty much a no-brainer to me. I am ALL IN!”

–Jeff M. 

Here is just a sampling of what you’ll create:

  • A helpdesk and ticket tracking application.
  • A centralized syslog server, complete with a web-based front-end so you can easily search through all of your Linux servers’ logs.
  • An up/down monitoring system…. be notified any time there is a problem with one of your systems or applications.
  • A performance metrics collection and graphing solution. You’ll get a real handle on what system utilization and load is across all of your systems. Plus, you’ll be able to spot performance bottlenecks with ease.
  • A shell script that will install and configure a web application from start to finish.
  • And more…
