The course is an eye-opener for non-IT students, it covers the basics of Linux, and goes further into the functions and operations of the Linux Operating System.

The presentation of the material was easy to follow, and having the ability to perform tasks both within the course platform as well as in a VM really helps to reinforce the learning material. I liked the way specific distributions were recommended, as well as the reasoning behind that.

The pacing is great, and the format is wonderful. The ease of use of the course material.

As a beginner, I went from knowing very little, to knowing enough to be confident in working with Linux!

The fact that I'm learning Linux from the creators and supporters of Linux itself. I am so pleased with all of the little new things I learned / will continue to learn, because of the Linux Foundation offering this course for free! I did opt to get the certificate, after passing the exam, so I'm excited about that.
