RHCSA is vendor specific to Red Hat. It's a good cert to have, in my<br>
opinion, but won't specifically help you articulate Debian / Ubuntu /<br>
whatever experience.<br>
<br>
LPIC and Linux Foundation should both be more vendor neutral. I've not<br>
researched the requirements for either exam, so I can't speak to<br>
specifics. I don't know how much either cost, but if they're not too<br>
expensive than I'd say try both.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
