I've taken their course. It's not too bad a course I suppose. I'm
not a sysadmin. Had I been one I might have put to use the skills
learned on how to set up a secondary DNS for example. The module on
bash/perl scripting was good for me as was the one on networking. The
first two would be basic for most people who've been around Linux CLI
for any amount of time. Unless you want/need the certificate, I'd
simply look at the course description and do the one(s) that you feel
you need.
