[ossig] Linux+ Certification Fasttrack Course - 22-27 September 2003

[Nan Phin <nplee@tm.net.my>]

Dear All,

Time flies.
It has already been a year, and MNCC-OSSIG is still alive and kicking :-)

Last year we did the Train the Trainers program for Linux+ and
LPI at Open Uni. It was the first TTT program for Linux in wide scale, and
the respond was vry good.

So this year we want to do something NEW,
first BootCamp in Malaysia!

Train you in compress timeframe and immediately sit for the CompTia
Linux+ exam. :-)

Our friend Brian Bork has been conducting Linux+ and LPI Boot Camp
in US for many years, and he is kindly to come down to Malaysia to kick
start this trend.

Who is CompTia then?
CompTia is the association make up of IT vendors in US
(like Pikom in Malaysia- except that they are big boys like IBM etc).
Their exam has been "standard" in US, I'm sure u guys heard abt A+,
Network+ exams.

Tech support in most US Vendors and Companies are req to take
these exam.

Anyway, for the benefits to members and to encourage certification,
the first 5 members of MNCC that register for the course will only pay $1,500
to attend the class (instead of $2,500/participant).

If you are not MNCC member, you can always join to be a member and
then register for this class :-)

Any one of you or your friend interested, pls contact MNCC.

Linux Fast Track Course

Comptia’s Linux Certification Fast Track
Effective accelerated learning for Linux
The world is waiting for Linux Certified IT Professionals.
Shouldn’t you be one?
Do you want to prove that you know the following?

-How Linux works

-What kind of hardware Linux works with and why

-How to function as a basic Linux Technician?

If you work with Linux, of course you do. Then you need to pass the world recognized Linux certification exam from CompTIA.

CompTIA, the same people who brought you the global A certification for basic computer system hardware and software, also provides
the same quality of exam for their Linux certification.

In order to pass the Linux exam, you need to be prepared. In fact, just having experience with certain aspects of Linux may not be
enough to pass the test on your own. That is why Parson/VUE, CompTIA, atSC, KMDC and MNCC are presenting a week long class designed
to help you pass the Linux exam and reap the rewards that certification can offer you in today's IS/IT marketplace.

By bringing in an expert trainer, providing you with the most current courseware and labs, and even providing you with an on-site
exam, atSC's Fast Track (one week, all inclusive) Linux class will be just what you need in order to have success in passing the
Linux exam.

You will get:

-Four highly charged days of intense Linux technical knowledge

-Ample hands-on lab time

-A full set of courseware and labs to take with you in order to use as a reference guide

-One half day of test preparation

And

-One CompTIA exam (presented by VUE testing services)

Don't miss your chance to improve your abilities as a Linux Technician! Contact Nonie of Malaysian National Computer Confederation
(Tel : 03-71183040) today to reserve your seat.

           Jalan Stesen Sentral 5,
           50470 Kuala Lumpur
Dates: 22nd - 27th September, 2003
Cost:   RM 2,500(including course and Comptia's Linux Certification exam)

About the Instructor:
Brian Bork has had a career in the Information Technology field for over 20 years. He has been a professional presenter on behalf of
open source software for the last five years. He currently holds several certifications including: SAIR Linux Certified Instructor,
SAIR Linux Certified Professional, SAIR Linux Certified Administrator, Linux Professional Institute’s Level 1 and Level 2
certification and CompTIA’s Linux+. Mr. Bork’s vast experience is the key to the presentations that he delivers, bringing “real
world” knowledge to classes and seminars all over the world. Mr. Bork uses a combination of deep knowledge of his subjects, a passion
for teaching and a humorous outlook in his presentations; helping both beginners and experts learn about various aspects of open
source software.

Mr. Bork has delivered seminars at such expositions as Networld/InterOp and Linux World. He currently owns his own
training/consulting firm, based in Appleton, WI in the United States. He has delivered his presentations in many countries, such as:
England, Singapore, Malaysia, The Netherlands, and of course, the USA. Mr. Bork’s company, Stormhawk Technical Education Consultants,
LLC, currently serves as a consulting agency to Advanced Technology Studies Centre in Malaysia. ATSC provides open source educational
materials to training partners in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.

Note:
The Fast Track style of learning isn’t for everyone. It requires that you have a basic understanding of computers and are able to
learn quickly.

Remember. There will be an exam to prove that you attended the class and learned everything you could about Linux. Most students who
attend the full class and study hard pass their exam on the first try. If you pass the Linux+ exam, you will receive a certificate
from the CompTIA spelling out that you are a Linux user and beginning administrator.

Fast Track classes and boot camps are one of the fastest globally accepted means of obtaining IT certification and knowledge without
missing months of work or taking years to develop skills that you need for your career.

By including the courseware, labs, computers to practice on, software, exams and even snacks, we make sure that you become fully
immersed in the technology that we are teaching.

The courseware and exams are all officially provided or licensed by CompTIA and their partners.

best wishes.
