Advancing the Linux community, one learner at a time.
Linux Education is a non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of the Linux community through education and open source advocacy.
Learning, building and sharing — the open source way.
AI can explain any command. Experience still comes from real systems, real projects and real people — that is what our community is for.
Hands-on education
Learn the theory however you like, then prove it on real machines — from first steps on the command line to running real infrastructure.
Open source advocacy
Promoting free and open source software, and the culture of transparency and collaboration behind it.
Community projects
Projects documented in our wiki, where members put what they learn into practice and review each other's work.
Find your way around.
A private community. Applications open.
Our project wiki is open to everyone. Membership goes further: members work on real servers, networks and clusters, so every application goes through a thorough screening to keep those systems — and the community — safe and trustworthy.
