Linux Professional Institute (LPI) has announced the Open Source Essentials certificate and education program, “targeting the common set of knowledge everyone with a role in open source should have.”

“With Open Source Essentials we establish a common set of knowledge and a common vocabulary to enable professionals of all sorts to collaborate with each other and consider the most important aspects of Open Source,” said Fabian Thorns, Director of Product Development at LPI in the announcement.

The first Open Source Essentials lessons, which are part of LPI’s Essentials certificate track, are available now, with translations to be added soon. The Open Source Essentials exam is available from Pearson Vue testing centers and the Pearson OnVue testing platform.
