Description

====================================Testimonials==================================================================

"I've been in IT for almost 20 years so the first few lectures didn't do much for me because I'm not a beginner with Linux. The content gives a great foundation I think the part of Linux that scares most people away is having to let go of the familiar tools from the Windows world. This course may not relieve that fear but it makes letting go much easier." ~ Erick A Wellnitz *****

"This is a very excellent course. The instructor is very knowledgeable and uses a practical approach in his videos. His instruction is very clear and concise. If you need to learn linux look no further. I really enjoyed the course. I can say I am very comfortable with most foundational and intermediate linux concepts after taking this course. Thanks Vikas for this informative course." ~ Helga T *****

"Yes it is. As of now i have learn so much in linux." ~ Joseph Margay *****

"Initially when I started watching this video I was not sure how use this learning journey is going to be, but just after spending 5 minutes on a video I realized that this course can be viewed and learnt by even a layman who has 0 knowledge and experience cause the instructor (Vikas) has explained it with right set of examples which will help you enhance your knowledge and gain good learning which in return will help in your career. Thank you Vikas for making things simple :-)" ~ Mohammed Soheb Mohammed Iqbal Patanwala *****
