Linux Programming Essentials
If you are:
• New to Linux and looking to make a solid career as a Linux System Programmer
• Working on other platforms but looking to master Linux System Programming
• Working on Linux and looking to completely understand Linux internals
Then this is where you precisely need to start. This course is designed to give you that turbo
charged push which will zoom you into this fabulous world of hard core programming. Over the
last 7 years each and every participant who underestimated this course on its face value, later came
back and attended this course irrespective of him being a middle level programmer or even a senior
programmer with over 10 years of experience. Hope we need not elaborate much on the importance
of this course
