LPI
===========================================

The LPI (Linux Professional Institute) seeks to become recognized as the
global leader in the certification of Linux professionals while advancing the
Linux and Open Source movement through strategic partners, sponsorships,
innovative programs and community development activities.

The ENOS organization has the pleasure to announce that we agreed with the LPI
Master Affiliate DRI to allow interested people to certificate themselves with
the LPI certification during the ENOS meeting (50% discount), which is a
really good opportunity to everyone get their own LPI certification!

Anyone interested in attend should sign in[3] or email eventos@opensusept.org
so we can have a better idea of how many people we should expect (tip: you
will not leave the event without some openSUSE goodies! ).
