LPIC-1 vs. Linux+: Which is Better?
The CompTIA Linux+ and Linux Professional Institute (LPI) LPIC-1 are the two most prominent, vendor-neutral Linux certifications available today for those looking to acquire entry-level Linux certs.
Until recently, CompTIA and the LPI had a partnership that guaranteed LPIC-1 certification to anyone who passed CompTIA’s Linux+ exam. In this video, CBT Nuggets trainer Shawn Powers weighs in on which certification is best for you to pursue since their breakup in April 2019.

how Linux Essentials compares with LPIC-1 ?
good video brother
There are 2 other benefits of the L+: 1 – you get to renew ALL your CompTIA certs. If you pass, the 3 year expiration resets. 2 – The L+ stackable with the A+. If you have the A+ and L+ you automatically get the "CompTIA Systems Support Specialist" (CSSS). FWIW. I'm doing the L+ FIRST but will go the LPIC-1 SECOND. And then in a perfect world I'd wrap all LPIC and move into RH. HR folks love to see a dozen ACTIVE certs.
Thx, now I know I gotta go LPIC 🙂
Great Job 👍
My very first certification will be Linux Essentials (LPI) i dont have no CompTIA certs at all but im will to start off with Linux
Cat! ❤❤❤
Are certs from the linux foundation just as good?
RHCSA 👉 RHCE
if they are 95% the same, I'd argue that there is no reason to get both.Your kitty is the prettiest and happiest, most inviting thing in your room.
LPIC-1, the answer is LPIC-1.
thanks mate
just wondering how the linux foundation CSA cert fits in? some other videos on youtube said it was the best of the three.
Thanks. This was helpful. And I can tell you´re a trustworthy biped by how sleepy and relaxed your cat is.
This was really helpful!
Thanks a lot. ❤
all these time i'm confused which is better? after this video all things became clear. thanks shawn
great clarification , thank you so much
Shawn i'm getting old…waiting for your lpic v5 course mate lol 🙂 come on i know there is a course there but when it comes to linux first name that pops in my head is Shawn! Thanks to you i got few certs over the years and now it's time to update and keep up lol please if you ever get free time sort out lpic-1 v5 and maybe linux+ along side with it 🙂 but please do it because you are amazing teacher and i know if i watch your tutorials i am exam ready and confident out there. take care and many thanks
Very helpful information!! It still rubs me wrong that comptia certs aren't for life.
He hit it on the nail..take the LPIC first then the Linux+ an you will clinch the Linux+ with your eyes closed..Thanks for the share big guy 🤟🏽
Seems your dog more interesed to know about competia & Linux+
It was sleeping during your explaination of LPICs.😁😀
Great video .. thank you
I studied the first 15 chapters of LPIC 1 (part 1) and have had to drop it, because while it does give me theoretical knowledge of Linux, it doesn't actually make me much better at using / administering Linux. Therefore I've switched to RHCSA to get way more hands on experience.
You are the only person I have found on YouTube that clearly explained the difference between these certifications. Thank you!!!!!
Your cat wasn't happy with the explanation…. "I am bored, let me just go back to sleep!" 😀
Great videos. Thank you.
I just bombed the Linux+ after completing all of their training materials and practice exams. Now I'm going back to focus more on scenarios, because it's 60 percent scenarios.
Hi. Its are great video for me. Thanks.
I'm about to start a 2 year program covering Linux+, Pentest+, CCNA and CYSA+ in order to secure me a job in cybersecurity for my future! wish me luck! I know it's not going to be easy… lol
How long are linux plus and lpic-1 certificates officially recognized by employers? or when do you have to renew these certificates?
You're more valuable if you're specialized.
Thank you!
Which of the 2 would serve as a good prerequisite for RHCSA?
What is the purpose of Linux Foundation certification and how do you break it down? Also could it be a qualification as good as LPIC'S or RHCSA'S?
Thank you!!!
sooo, now I'm preparing myself for security plus next will be networking and after that linux + somebody pressed rewind button on me or what?
that's a giant cat
If neither is better don't make a vs. video.
What about LPLC? 🤣
diggin that DANIEL DEFENSE on the wall behind ya!!
Thank you for the information. Very helpful
What are your thoughts regarding LPIC-1 vs LFCS from the Linux Foundation?
Than why is CompTIA Linnux+ is more popular than LPIC and most importantly Linux+ graduates get job much faster than LPIC.

Linux specific is more my speed. That is what I was looking for.
The answer people were looking for is actually quite simple, not which is better. But which is commonly more hirable.
Great video… Not sure why any body would give it a thumbs down 🤷🏽♂️
