The effort that goes into developing exams that really test a person's knowledge requires charging a fee for the exam. Also, it's too easy to cheat on a web-based exam, so they usually do not help.
Yes, but is a website from USA with the test online, and my problem is i cant teach online. I need to stay with the instructor and make all the things REAL.

I completed the LPI level 1 back in 2000. It was a good experience, mostly for what I learned. I don't know that it actually helped me in a search for a job, but the knowledge certainly helped me do my job better.
It looks like you can take courses right there in Madrid for the Red Hat exam. The Red Hat RHCE certification is generally considered better for demonstrating knowledge with Linux.
Thank you, i search a little in infojobs.net (work in Spain) and with LPI just one company look a person who have this certificacion and with Red Hat 22 .. i search a litlle and i find the location Red Hat in Spain
www.europe.redhat.com - Red Hat Europe | Training

A certification is two things, a demonstration of ability, and an investment. Generally, the Red Hat is a better demonstration because you test in a lab with results-based tasks; LPI is simply picking the right answer to a question. LPI is still better than others, like Linux+ or Brainbench, though. Also, a certification is an investment. We expect to get the money we spend back by getting a better job. So, if you spend a few hundred euros on the study and exam, you should have opportunities for a higher paying job that you would not have if you don't get a certification.
I dont want the certificacion, because is just a paper i want to learn and now more about Unix .. but is imposible to learn Unix, because not exist a master or exams in Unix .. so i try with Linux .. anothe problem is i dont now nothing about Linux/Unix .. for this i need to star from cero with something.
I work 2 years en Indra en IBM, but only HelpDesk Support, is just very litlle technical job, and im not proud with this .. i want more, but is very difficult .. and honest .. i dont now with what i can start .. i like a lot to programming and make this things .. but alone i now very litlle about PHP and HTML .. but im young and i have time to study
Thank you very much for your amabillity and your time, have a good day.
