Paper certificates are only issued for LPIC exams, not Linux Essentials. You may download your Linux Essentials PDF certificate by logging into your lpi.org account. PDF certificates are not available for LPIC at this time.
Once your LPIC exams have been loaded onto your account we will mail out your certificate automatically. Delivery times will depend on where in the world you’re located, but it can take up to 4-8 weeks to arrive. If you haven’t received your certificate after 8 weeks, please use the contact form above and provide us with the following information:

No. You may write any version of the exams and they will count toward your certification equally. When we release a new version of an exam with updated objectives, the previous version remains available to candidate for 6 months. We do this to allow candidates to write the version of the exam that they have studied for. So for example, if you passed the 117-201 exam in the past, passing the 202-400 exam now would still result in achieving LPIC-2 certification.
When writing a computer-based exam at a Pearson VUE testing centre, you'll typically see your results on your lpi.org profile within 24 hours. If we've not received your results after 48 hours, please contact us using the form above.
If you wrote the Linux+ Powered by LPI exam(s), we will only receive your results once you’ve authorized CompTIA to send them. To do this, login to your CompTIA candidate account and select the Demographics tab, followed by the Settings sub-page. On this page you can select the option to have your exams sent to LPI. Any exams we receive from CompTIA will count toward your LPIC-1 certification. Please allow 48 hours for your CompTIA exams to appear in your LPI profile.
