Dan York
Linux Gazette October 1998article about Linux certification
![Page 8: LPI Points on Facts and Focus](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052619/55514618b4c905bd1c8b4fd8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Certification …
![Page 9: LPI Points on Facts and Focus](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052619/55514618b4c905bd1c8b4fd8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The very word spawns Usenet flame wars and conjures up images of inexperienced novices with a piece of paper winning employment over more experienced candidates who lack the appropriate acronyms
![Page 10: LPI Points on Facts and Focus](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052619/55514618b4c905bd1c8b4fd8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
It reeks of centralized control and of forcing people to take exams to demonstrate their knowledge
![Page 11: LPI Points on Facts and Focus](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052619/55514618b4c905bd1c8b4fd8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Yet if Linux is to be widely accepted into the computing mainstream, I believe a certification program is essential
