Install it and start using it.
Read and learn.

Also:

Pick up a book from your local bookstore (or library) that covers your specific GNU/Linux distro and version.
Ensure that you have a proper test system to practice configuration changes and upgrades on.

If you're to be responsible for administrating the system, try to get your company to open its wallet for professional training.
