This Bash skills course is valuable for new IT professionals with at least a year of experience with systems infrastructure and experienced system administrators looking to validate their Linux skills.
New or aspiring system administrators. If you’re a new system administrator, there’s no better time to get mastery of Linux than now. Early in your career is the perfect time to explore the many different operating systems you’ll work with throughout your career. The essentials of Linux distributions, Bash shell, and file permissions are lessons you’ll use many times. This training will prepare you with the essentials of Bash training and Linux use so you can eventually go on to Linux mastery.
Experienced system administrators. Many systems administrators with a few years in the career field pick up Linux as they need it.

This is effective up until you’re under a time crunch and need immediate familiarity with a certain file operation or Linux distribution. If you’ve been flying Linux by the seat of your pants for a few years, take the time to take this Bash training and gain mastery of all the basic operations of Linux.
