Two Linux Systems Administration Courses
Course One: 85321 Systems Administration:
This is a third year
core computing unit in the Bachelor of Information Technology degree offered
by the Faculty of Informatics and Communication at Central Queensland
University. The aim of this course is to introduce students to the task of
Systems Administration, looking after and maintaining complex computer
systems. In particular, it aims to produce students who meet the requirements
of a Junior Systems Administrator as outlined in the SAGE
Job Description booklet (without the 1 or 2 years experience). The
emphasis on practical, real problems means students must have access to a
Linux computing platform. Also, here is a Linux
Tutorial as an additional study and learning resource for you.
Study Guide:
