Among the articles I send, the most popular one is information about discounts on relevant certifications (besides Kubernetes).
In fact, the biggest discounts are during Cyber Monday (Black Friday) at the end of the year, but that’s only once a year, and I’ve found that many people look for certification discount information during other exam periods.
So I had been thinking that I should organize this information at some point, and the Linux Foundation Education team (The Linux Foundation, Education) happened to contact me as well. They agreed to let me organize and share it through a site like the current one if it would be helpful to users in Korea. 😊
Accordingly, since the Linux Foundation’s education team has agreed to notify us before promotions, we may be able to receive discount information faster than anyone else in Korea and update the site with it.
Although we plan to send another general announcement about the event held once a year (because it would really be a shame to miss it),
For anything else that seems reasonably worthwhile, I’m only planning to send it as “How to Prepare Well for Official Kubernetes Certifications.” I imagine some of you may get tired of receiving repetitive emails. 😢
Therefore, if you’re interested in the certification discount information itself, it would be best to visit the site directly.
Oh, and since some of you may be wondering what that site is,
To explain it briefly,
I conduct various research in areas of interest to me (https://github.com/sysnet4admin/Research)）
Once I turn the content here into a REAMDE format,
I reformat the content into a more readable form and post it here: https://kuberneteslab.dev/ko/.
You can think of it as being linked to that site. 🙂
Currently, the Linux Foundation certification discount site provides three main pieces of information.
1️⃣. Current maximum discount code vs. permanent discount code (KUBELAB30)
There are no places worldwide offering more than 30% off with a permanent discount code, so I wanted to secure better terms, but it turned out to be difficult to get anything beyond this. Therefore, I recommend using it only if you’re in a hurry. (It seemed like the biggest waste of time was looking around for a coupon every time.)
2️⃣. Complete history of certification discounts since 2021
I wanted to organize this so you could judge whether waiting longer might result in a bigger discount, or, for example, how significant the current 40% discount is and whether it would be better to wait a little longer. As it happened, I found all of this in my inbox, so I compiled and organized it all.
As written above, the end of the year is the best time.
3️⃣. Certification-related FAQ
It is one of the conversations that mainly comes up in the open chat, though.
I plan to make this a place where I provide information on certification verification, renewal periods, renewal requirements, and more, and manage it accordingly.
I hope this will be of great help! I will manage it consistently! Thank you.
Sincerely, Jo Hoon
