The Linux System Administration training course is tuned and targeted at software developers, quality assurance engineers, and software configuration management engineers. Instead of spending the entire time focusing on how to setup, configure, and administer a linux machine, the course focuses on the common configuration elements and core command-line tools to effectively work in the linux environment.

Developers, Q/A, and develops engineers needing to learn basic Linux administration.
