Congratulations! I just passed the Net + this morning.

[peterbonner]

Congrats! I work full time at an ISP in the cable department and wanted to get a foundation in networking. Took me a month but I passed my Network + last week! Next up CompTIA A+, you’ve motivated me to finally develop good study habits. Looking for an entry IT role. Entry steps 😁

[jinxjones]

I took the Linux + exam a few years ago. I pulled my hair out and was happy to see I passed👍👍👍

[treywadsworth]

Congrats! I took it two weeks ago... Thought I was failing most of the way through but ended up with a 88%!

[lampmanjosh]

I just started studying for the RHCSA(Already have Linux +), and coming from a background of Cisco(CCNA/CCNP) you're right; I feel right at home.
Congrats on your pass! @NetworkChuck
Here are my plans:
ECPPT/RHCSA > AWS > Renew CCNA + Code Academy

You were not fucking kidding. I have been working as a Sysadmin since 2012 to current. I recently started doing the Linux+ course.... I had no idea how vast it can be. It actually made my life soo much easier!.

[ramiawaleh]

I love listening to you, even as background noise. Learning with entertainment. I hope you also document your new journey because I'm currently going through it as well towards the security side

[VershPrieto]

Linux just went to space a few days ago :)

[madmikification]

Just got laid off from being a TSE for a couple years and will be looking to get into the Linux/Docker stuff after watching your videos. You definitely gotten me re-excited for IT again! Thanks man!

[thesinofthetin]

You have inspired me to be exited about IT! Thank you so much. Congrats on passing!

[thebigwarthog]

By “web admin” I assume they mean systems administrators managing the back end of web platforms. In my company we use primarily Linux for hosting these various external facing systems.

[Vi-XiphiqiX]

Well done and congrats, I've been thinking about doing this for a while. So less thinking and more right now. Thanks for the tips much appreciated.

[bloodpackk]

This is so funny that this dropped tonight. I was actually just watching last years videos where you said you were going to it last August. Congratulations! I’m trying to study Linux+ now.

I recommend people go for the LPI Linux Essentials exam first. It depends on your role though. I am currently a cloud engineer that switched from sys admin. I went CCP, LPI Linux Essentials, then SAA-02. Now I’m picking my AWS specialty. Depending on how I go depends on my next cert. Linux+ is good but should be the first Linux certification people go for.

[JoshBagwell]

Congrats! I have been a mainstream Linux user for about 5 years, and I thought I would go straight for the RHCSA. Should be done by the holidays 😁. Keep it up!

[ltitus]

I know I said this already but I am so proud of you brother. I finally scheduled my CCNA and will be taking it on the 18th of July!! I am freaking excited and this is gonna be the first place that I am coming to notify you of the results. Congrats

[DareBear]

I took this exam in 2014 and absolutely failed it miserably. I think it’s important to note how valuable this cert is IRL. Here in the Baltimore/Washington D.C. area, this certification is highly regarded and usually leads to a level of employment that generally hits above the 6 figure mark on the reg. Glad you hit up how in demand Linux skills are, even mentioning it on a resume gets you phone calls

2 years later...I go for my LPI Linux Essentials cert next Tuesday. 5/16/23
I took the Cisco Linux Essentials course (Free) and got a 30% discount voucher. Even as a daily Linux user I was still surprised at how much I learned. Cisco also has 2 more advanced Linux courses that tie in with the LPIC 1 & 2 certs which are aimed at the professional level Linux administrators. I am pretty certain my next level up will be the Google Cyber Security cert. Chuck, you're pretty awesome. I really enjoy your videos, and I really need to buy a bag of your coffee to enjoy in my morning chemex pour over routine. Cheers!

[blackburn]

Thanks and Congratulations Chuck. I have my test on June 30th. Still not so awesome in the Bash scripting yet.
