CompTIA - Linux+

On this CompTIA Linux+ course, you’ll learn how to manage, operate, configure and maintain systems and hardware within a Linux environment.

In just 6 days, you’ll build knowledge on software operations, managing users, groups and services, as well as understanding Linux boot process concepts and kernel modules.

You’ll also learn how to:

• Troubleshoot and diagnose Linux issues, including system properties, user issues, application and hardware issues
• Apply security topics like as user/group permissions and ownership, access and authentication methods, Linux firewalls, and file backup, restoration and compression
• Demonstrate automation and scripting skills like BASH scripts and version control using GIT

At the end of your course, you’ll sit exam XK0-004 and achieve the CompTIA Linux+ certification. You’ll learn from certified CompTIA instructors, as Firebrand is an Authorised Partner of CompTIA.

You’ll also get access to official courseware including the Official CompTIA Linux+ Student Guide (Exam XK0-004) eBook and the Official CompTIA Linux+ Labs (Exam XK0-004) LogicalLAB.
