This path is intended for Linux systems administrators, systems technicians, infrastructure engineers, DevOps engineers and SREs who want to master Linux at a certified professional level, regardless of the distribution used in the enterprise (Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, SUSE, etc.). It is also suitable for profiles retraining toward Linux administration who want to earn 2 world-recognized LPI certifications.

The path covers Linux administration from beginner to advanced: Linux/Unix onboarding, LPIC-1 (exams 101+102: packages, file systems, scripting, networking, security), LPIC-2 (advanced services: kernel, LVM/RAID, DNS, web, mail, LDAP) and advanced Linux administration.

Yes. You start with Linux/Unix basics, pass LPIC-1 (Junior) then LPIC-2 (Advanced) and deepen advanced administration; the LPI exam vouchers are included.

The path lasts 23 days (161 hours, based on 7h/day), spread over 20 to 30 weeks depending on your schedule. It is our longest path due to the depth of the LPIC-1 training (13 days). Spreading it out lets you properly prepare for the 4 official LPI exams (101, 102, 201, 202) and consolidate what you have learned between modules.

The price covers the four training courses (Linux/Unix, LPIC-1, LPIC-2 and Advanced Linux Administration), the 4 official LPI exam vouchers (101, 102, 201, 202), several MFE-IT mock exams built into the path, the complete teaching materials, access to the multi-distribution Linux labs and a global MFE-IT skills validation certificate issued at the end of the path.

The LPIC-1 and LPIC-2 modules are validated by 4 official LPI exams (vouchers included). The other two modules do not have an LPI exam: MFE-IT then issues a skills validation certificate.

The recommended prerequisites are general knowledge of an operating system (Windows or Linux at user level), basic computing and networking skills, and technical English reading skills (useful for Linux documentation and the LPI exams). No specific Linux prerequisite is required: the path starts with the Linux/Unix module, which lays all the fundamentals. The path is particularly suited to profiles retraining toward Linux administration.

Sessions take place in groups of 1 to 3 participants to guarantee individual attention and a pace suited to your profile. On-site training can take place directly at your premises, and remote training can be recorded on request so you can review key passages. Each day alternates theory, demonstrations and guided practice on an MFE-IT Linux lab (virtual machines with several distributions).

The path prepares you for the role of experienced Linux systems administrator across all distributions. At the end, you know how to administer a varied Linux fleet in a professional environment, deploy services, manage system security and performance, and sit the LPIC-1 and LPIC-2 certifications. It is a highly sought-after profile in IT service companies, hosting providers, telecom operators and every IT department that runs Linux in production.

The LPIC (Linux Professional Institute Certification) certifications are the vendor-independent Linux certifications most recognized worldwide. LPIC-1 validates junior Linux administrator skills (2 exams: 101 + 102). LPIC-2 validates experienced Linux administrator skills (2 exams: 201 + 202). A major asset: these certifications are distro-agnostic, so they remain valuable whether you subsequently work on Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, SUSE or Arch.

This path focuses on the distro-agnostic LPI certifications (LPIC-1 and LPIC-2) with 4 official LPI exams included. The Red Hat Linux Administrator path focuses on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and the RHCSA EX200 certification. Choose LPI if you want a distribution-independent certification or if you work on several Linux distributions. Choose Red Hat if your professional target is a company using RHEL specifically in production.
