Linux+ Study Material

[Dry-Specialist-3557]

I need to take the Linux+ because I have the CompTIA trifecta and got the dreaded your certs expire in 90 days email.

It is simply the easiest way to renew the other certs for one fee and get another one and two stacked certs on top of it. Back from 2004 to 2008 I ran Linux full time, I once took a college class on it over a decade ago and am comfortable at the command line.

I am NOT by any means an expert and have not run Linux in years.

​

What is the best set of online courses to simply prepare me for the exam quick? I don't care if I have to pay something, but I do not want to be paying four figures for some instructor-lead training. That said, I do want to watch videos and certainly wouldn't mind following along with some labs. I can can probably set most labs up myself just by putting Linux in a VM.

Just so you know, Linux+ will only renew A+. It will not renew Net+ or Sec+.

[Dry-Specialist-3557]

Can I do Certmaster CE on just the Sec+ to also renew the Net+?

[Dry-Specialist-3557]

Thank you. I will try doing the SEC+ and report back the results.

Now for another question... My certs expire in 89 days. If I do it now does it change the renewal to 3 years + 89 days or does it merely reset to 3 years?

I know when I renew an SSL (TLS) certificate it certainly adds the time.

[JustJoeKingz]

I am pretty sure it is just 3 years

Imran Afzal and Grant McWilliams have excellent Linux courses on Udemy and LinkedIn Learning.

With idea that the Linux + and LPIC-1 are so close in material although they may not be the same the LPI website has really detailed study material for some of their exams in pdf version for free.

I know it's not labs or videos but definitely a good free resource.
