Linux+ LXO-103 & LXO-104 Retirement October 1st, 2019

[Stephen Schneiter]

Just a friendly reminder if you are still preparing, or have students preparing for Linux+ LXO-103 & LXO-104, the exam retirement is October 1st. Be sure to have both exams completed by the expiration date. There will not be any extensions available.

Thanks for the heads up, Stephen, i am frantically cramming (as of Friday, and frantic for me is kind of laid back among other things) for the two of them as I have some unexpired vouchers. One wuick question, in at least one place, I seem to have seen you cannot take the second exam before the first is done?

Great question Bajmagda, I agree with Walt, I do believe this is the case for taking LX0-103 first. I have reached out to the product manager for the cert to verify. Will post answer as soon as I hear back.

I scheduled both the same day and so the second part didn't make me have the first done before I could schedule... /shrugs I can't deny what Walt said as the website definitely says that, but it let me schedule the both.

I did here back from the product manager and she confirms LX0-103 must be completed first. I guess it makes sense, basic concepts and management then moving into more advanced administration.
