Course costs change from one year to the next so I'd check on the OU website for the price and dates of the next course (search for T155). When I did the course, students were given a 20% (IIRC) discount on Wiley books and a 50% discount on the exam (still £120 IIRC even after the discount). At the time I did it there was talk about the exam being updated to apply for both the CompTIA+ exam and LPI level 1 so I donj't know if the cost of the exam may have gone up to reflect this. At the time I did it, the discount only applied to the old CompTIA+ exam, not the combined one.<br><br>Sorry for being a bit vague but my memory is crap and I forget where I recorded all the details. Hope it helps nonetheless.<br><br>Patrick<br><br>> Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2011 07:39:39 +0100<br>> Subject: Re: [Gllug] Open University Linux Introduction course T155<br>> From: sanelson@gmail.com<br>> To: gllug@gllug.org.uk<br>> CC: patrickmoody84@hotmail.com<br>> <br>> On Tue, Mar 29, 2011 at 10:57 AM, Patrick Moody<br>> <patrickmoody84@hotmail.com> wrote:<br>> <br>> > I did the course last year and would strongly recommend it to anyone with<br>> > little to no knowledge of Linux who wanted to get to grips with the basics.<br>> <br>> Looks like it could be ideal for my brother-in-law.
