> LPI EXAM LAB at TORONTO
> 
> 1. Toronto Exam Lab at Linuxcaffe: September 26, 2009
> 
> LPI will be hosting a promotional exam lab on September 26th at 4 p.m.
> at the Linuxcaffe workshop, 318 Harbord Street, Toronto (just around the
> corner from Linuxcaffe itself: http://www.linuxcaffe.ca/)
> 
> All three levels of LPI certification (LPIC-1, LPIC-2 and LPIC-3) will
> be offered at this limited seating exam lab at special promotional
> pricing of $119 CDN (includes GST)--a savings of $49 CDN for LPIC-1,
> LPIC-2 and LPI-302 & LPI-303 exams.  Pricing for the LPIC-3
> certification exam (LPI-301) is $219 (includes GST)--a savings of $54
> off of regular pricing.
> 
> To participate in the exam labs you must obtain an LPI ID at
> https://www.lpi.org/caf/Xamman/register. To assure that you have a seat,
> candidates should email LPI at events-WHMkLBA7RDE at public.gmane.org with the following
> information by September 23, 2009:
> 
> (1) LPI ID
> (2) Exam that the candidate wishes to take (LPI-101, 102, 201, etc.)
> 
> On the day of the exam, candidates may make payment for their exams
> onsite 15 minutes prior to the exam lab by cash or cheque payable to the
> "Linux Professional Institute".  However advanced payment via paypal
> with LPI is preferred. Each exam takes approximately 90 minutes to complete.
> 
> Candidates should bring their LPI ID and a government issued photo
> identification to the exam lab.
> 
> 2.  IMPORTANT: "Single Exam" Expiry Policy
> 
> In March our Board of Directors passed a new policy that limited the
> time a single exam would remain valid towards certification.  In the
> past it was possible that one could write and pass one exam and then
> take the second exam at an indefinite later date in order to complete
> the certification (e.g. both LPIC-1 and LPIC-2 require two exams).  This
> has been modified to align with our recertification policy (# 6 at
> http://www.lpi.org/eng/certification/policies): a single exam will be
> valid for only five years such that the second exam must be taken within
> a five year period in order to obtain the certification.  This policy
> became effective September 1, 2009.
> 
> 
> 3.  LPIC-1 and Ubuntu Certified Professional Vouchers
> 
> LPI and Canonical (sponsor of the popular Linux distribution Ubuntu)
> have introduced a new discounted voucher program for the LPIC-1 and
> Ubuntu Certified Professional (UCP) exams. The promotional program
> enables candidates to purchase a voucher bundle for the LPI-101, LPI-102
> and the LPI-199 exams at USD $120 each--a savings of over 20%.
> 
> For more information please on this voucher bundle please see:
> http://www.lpi.org/eng/about_lpi/upcoming_events/lpi_promotions_and_incentives
> 
> To order your voucher bundle please contact: accounts-WHMkLBA7RDE at public.gmane.org
> 
> 4.  Host an EXAM LAB in Ontario!
> 
> LPI invites groups of 10 or more interested exam candidates to contact
> us to organize their own local promotional exam labs.  We will offer LPI
> exams at a discounted price if you are able to identify a potential exam
> proctor, a room location, and 10 or more interested participants.  If
> you can gather together the requisite amount of exam candidates feel
> free to contact us for more information at events-WHMkLBA7RDE at public.gmane.org
