Training The Linux Foundation

Training goals

code: TLF-LFCT

The Linux Foundation Certified Cloud Technician (LFCT)  exam demonstrates a candidate’s competence of using the command line to configure, manage, and troubleshoot Linux systems and containers in a platform- and distribution-agnostic way.

A Linux Foundation Certified Cloud Technician (LFCT) can proficiently work with modern cloud infrastructure built on Linux, VMs, containers, Git, CI/CD pipelines, and orchestration tools.

Who Is It For

The LFCT is for Linux Power Users, Software Developers, or existing certified candidates (CKA, etc.) who wish to demonstrate their ability to work efficiently in a Linux environment and be more successful at their job. Other candidates for LFCT include Cloud Administrators or LFCA-certified candidates who don’t wish to invest fully in becoming a Linux System Administrator (LFCS).
