Certification for Kernel Programming.

Hi everybody,

I know that we have RHCE for Red hat Linux Admin. I want to know that do we also have any kind of certification programs based on Linux Kernel programming or Device Drivers Programming.

I would be grateful to you all.

Thanks in Advance.

Hello! Please excuse me for this question - I`m now learning Linux kernel and driver programming (I´m a little experienced in this field in windows). Couldn´t you say, where it´s possible to find a job with such knoweledge?

I dont think so... programming certifications are kinda rare. They seem pretty pointless to me, you can be a pretty crappy Java programmer and get certified if you hermit for 2-3 weeks and study the Java certification book(s).

If it does exist, cool - but I would say an online portfolio (professional looking one) showcasing some of your drivers with problem statements, test plans, algorithms and comments would get you a job in the field faster than a certification would.
