Toronto, 2025-01-29 — Linux Professional Institute (LPI) has released free Learning Materials for its Open Source Essentials certificate in Vietnamese. This initiative makes open source education and career growth more accessible to Vietnamese-speaking professionals looking to enter and succeed within open source communities, departments, and organisations.
”Alongside Japanese, Vietnamese is the second Asian language in which we can present our Learning Materials. We are very pleased to make it easier to prepare for our exams in another language and are working on further translations for the Asian region,” says Markus Wirtz, LPI Senior Product Manager.
Open Source Essentials certifies a broad understanding of open source principles, including legal, technical, and business aspects. Unlike many industry certifications, it is designed for everyone—developers, managers, lawyers, or anyone curious about open source—regardless of their technical background.
LPI Learning Materials for Open Source Essentials help learners understand open source concepts, communicate effectively, and collaborate within the open source ecosystem. The materials are a good starting point for anyone seeking to prepare for the Open Source Essentials exam, develop new skills, and pursue opportunities in open source communities and industries.
