I was wondering why we don't have any certification exams from Debian though it has been used by many. I have seen many companies looking for Linux admin or Linux professionals who are running Debian as their servers but could not understand why they ask for a Redhat Certified guy even if they are not running Redhat Servers?
Redhat & Debian, both started around the same time but then also why Debian guys never thought of or never launched a Certification exam? Not to proof something but aleast people would be able to test their skills or expertise as per the Enterprise requirement.
We have Redhat certifications, LPIC and now from Linux foundation as well. Will there be a time for Debian based certifications or not?
Just a query or curiosity, not an arguement

Debian Certified Linux Engineer?

Since it looks like Debian will be morphing into some sort of Red Hat satellite with virusd under the hood, I imagine the Red Hat certs might suffice.raspbian wrote:We have Redhat certifications, LPIC and now from Linux foundation as well.

May the FORK be with you!

Re: Debian Certified Linux Engineer?
It was discussed a few years ago.
They figured you wouldn't pass it anyway, so the idea was given up.

Had they (Richard Stallman+Linus Torvalds+Other developers) thought this way, we would have never got a free OS. Anyhow, I will let you know my certificate number to verify the same, once they change their mind til then be happy with your thoughts.raspbian wrote:They figured you wouldn't pass it anyway, so the idea was given up.

Hmmm, but waiting for a logical answer and not the certification to be launched. Just curious to know, m already an RHCE even when the thread didn't exist.
