What you'll learn
Training overview
This boot camp is an intense, five-day training designed to teach you the fundamental skills and knowledge required to successfully configure, manage and troubleshoot Linux systems.

Add on the fact that Linux-based Android accounts for approximately 80% of the smartphone market and you’ll find many IT careers are founded on Linux skills.
