Certifications are slowly evolving as the life lines of those who are craving for better placements and job facilities at the global level. Due to these reasons, there has been a sudden bloom in the number of institutes which provide certifications like the Microsoft certification, the Cisco certs, the MCSE certification and the CCNP certification. Thus, it becomes, quite a herculean task for the professionals to choose for the best one.

But, this entire process of selection has been simplified by the important role which is being played by the TNS Institute, which has emerged as one of the Microsoft training institutes in India. The certification provided by TNS is important due to various reasons because they are reflections of the unbeatable qualities which have been inculcated in the professionals. At the same time, the entire IT service sector has witnessed tremendous growth, but at the same time, the employment opportunities are very limited and are available only for those who have the recognition and identification in this sector.

Over the past ten years, there has been a tremendous increase in the job advertisements which demand in depth knowledge and practice in Linux. The skills which are needed for the technical workman ship can be tested only through credibility which is provided by the professionals having Linux certification. Thus, the entire segregation of professionals, well conversant with the Linux skills has become the new trend in the IT market.

The Linux certification adds to the credibility of the professional and sharpens his technical acumen. At the same time, the certifications which are provided by the TNS institute are taken very seriously by the leading companies and organizations of the IT sector and thus, the professional is saved from unwanted hassles and groovy start-ups.

There are various kinds of Linux certification which are provided by the TNS institute, further adding to the specialization of the professionals in this domain. Some of the certifications are

· Vendor-neutral

· Entry level

But these certifications are not that credible, when taken into account, with the technical managers. For those, who are already working with the Linux systems, should better try for more complex certifications of Novel and Red Hat.

Just like the reliable and reputed Cisco certifications, even these certifications have a lot of market value and being endowed by TNS, adds more quality and prestige to them.
