SUMMARY:LPI Supports Hacktoberfest Hack Day Banjul 2026
DESCRIPTION:October 31\, 2026\nThe Disruptive Lab\, Bakau\, The Gambia\n\nLinux Professional Institute (LPI) is proud to support Hacktoberfest Hack Day Banjul 2026\, hosted by the Open Digital Sovereignty Initiative (ODSI) in partnership with Open Source Community Africa (OSCA) Gambia. \nAbout the Event\nHack Day is designed for anyone curious about open source\, whether you have never opened a pull request before or you are looking to go deeper. The day combines workshops\, dedicated build time and prizes for meaningful contributions\, including an award for the best open source AI project. \nThe event is the capstone of the Road to Hacktoberfest series\, a run of community meetups built with OSCA Gambia to grow participants’ skills and confidence in open source contribution ahead of the main event. \nHack Day runs from 9:00 to 18:00 UTC at The Disruptive Lab\, 78 Atlantic Boulevard\, Bakau. Attendance is open to everyone\, with registration through the event page. \nLPI Support for Participants\nEvery Hack Day participant receives a 20% discount on one LPI certification exam\, shared by the organizers on the day. \nThe winner of the hackathon receives a free voucher for an LPI Essentials exam\, so that a day of contribution can turn into a recognized\, vendor-neutral certificate. \nWhy LPI Supports Hack Day Banjul\nA first pull request is a small act with a long reach. Open source careers rarely begin with a certification: they begin with a contribution\, a community and someone willing to help. Hack Day Banjul supplies all three\, and LPI exists to support the people who go on from there. \nODSI’s work on strengthening Africa’s open source ecosystem and advancing digital sovereignty across the continent is close to LPI’s own mission: promoting the use of open source by supporting the people who work with it. \nLinks\n\nEvent page and registration: Hacktoberfest Hack Day Banjul\nHacktoberfest: the Hacktoberfest website\nLPI certifications: the LPI certification catalog

The discount is shared with participants by the organizers. \nFor a community built on practical skills\, it is a natural next step: a week of hands-on security work\, followed by a globally recognized\, vendor-neutral credential that proves it. \nEyesOpenCTF 2026\nLaunched as Central Africa’s first cybersecurity competition\, EyesOpenCTF is today the region’s largest open-access cybersecurity competition. From November 20 to 22\, participants compete online across more than 40 challenges in 8 disciplines: Web Security\, Binary Exploitation\, Digital Forensics\, Cryptography\, Log Analysis\, AI Security\, Reverse Engineering and OSINT. Around 500 competitors are expected\, from beginners to advanced practitioners. \nFocus and Audience\nThe 2026 program focuses on practical cybersecurity\, AI\, emerging threats\, infrastructure\, AppSec\, digital forensics\, cloud\, resilience\, talent development and the future of Africa’s digital ecosystem.

SUMMARY:LPI Media Partner of the Latin American LibreOffice Congress 2026
DESCRIPTION:November 27-28\, 2026\nUniversidad Luterana Salvadoreña\, San Salvador\, El Salvador\n\nLinux Professional Institute (LPI) is proud to be Media Partner of the 7th Congreso Latinoamericano de LibreOffice\, the annual gathering of the LibreOffice community across Latin America\, held for the first time in El Salvador on November 27 and 28\, 2026. \nAbout the Congress\nThe seventh edition is organized by the Universidad Luterana Salvadoreña together with the Latin American community of the LibreOffice Project. The program brings together talks\, workshops\, tutorials on the LibreOffice applications\, and mentoring on how to contribute to the project and help the community grow\, with speakers from El Salvador\, Mexico\, Spain\, Brazil and France. \nThe event is open to the public and expects around 400 participants. \n20% Discount on LPI Certifications\nParticipants in the Congreso Latinoamericano de LibreOffice 2026 receive a 20% discount on one LPI certification exam\, shared by the organizers. \nFor a community built on contribution rather than credentials\, the discount is not a change of direction: it is a way to make the skills already in use visible to employers\, in a form recognized worldwide and tied to no vendor. \nFocus and Audience\nThe Congress gathers open source IT professionals\, teachers and professors\, students and recent graduates\, and open source enthusiasts from across Latin America. \nHosting the seventh edition in El Salvador for the first time matters in itself. A regional community conference that moves between countries carries knowledge\, contacts and confidence into places that rarely host events of this kind\, which is exactly the ground LPI wants to support. \nLPI as Media Partner\nLibreOffice is one of the clearest demonstrations of what free software delivers in daily use: a complete\, open document suite that belongs to its community rather than to a vendor. The skills around it\, the Linux systems it runs on\, the infrastructure that serves it\, the practices that keep documents open and portable\, are the skills LPI exists to validate. \nSupporting this Congress is also support for digital sovereignty in Latin America\, and for the people who make it practical rather than theoretical. \nLinks\n\nEvent website: 7° Congreso Latinoamericano de LibreOffice\nLibreOffice: the LibreOffice website\nLPI certifications: the LPI certification catalog

SUMMARY:LPI Media Partner of OpsJam 2027 at UC Irvine
DESCRIPTION:January 16-17\, 2027\nUniversity of California\, Irvine\, California\, United States\n\nLinux Professional Institute (LPI) is proud to serve as Media Partner for OpsJam 2027\, an infrastructure-focused hackathon hosted by the Anteater Linux User Group (ALUG@UCI) at the University of California\, Irvine. \nBuild\, Break\, Scale\nOpsJam brings together students from universities across the region to build\, break\, and scale real infrastructure over a single weekend. Alongside the core build sprint\, participants can attend workshops and join social events with other students working in DevOps\, orchestration\, monitoring\, and systems engineering. \n20% Discount on LPI Certifications\nOpsJam 2027 participants receive a 20% discount on LPI certification exams. This exclusive offer allows students to validate their Linux and open source skills with globally recognized credentials before entering the job market. \nWhy Infrastructure Skills Matter\nLinux sits underneath the vast majority of modern infrastructure\, from cloud platforms to container orchestration to monitoring stacks. Hackathons like OpsJam give students something a lecture cannot: the experience of standing up systems under time pressure\, watching them fail\, and fixing them. That is precisely the skill set employers look for\, and precisely what vendor-neutral certification is designed to validate. \nAbout ALUG@UCI\nThe Anteater Linux User Group is UC Irvine’s community for Linux and open source: a hands-on\, peer-driven group where students build real-world skills in DevOps\, self-hosting\, and systems administration while working on projects together. ALUG@UCI meets weekly during term\, runs an installfest and LAN party each quarter\, and maintains its own Git infrastructure and community projects. \nOpsJam is the group’s flagship event\, extending that hands-on culture to students across universities. \nGet Involved\nStudents interested in Linux and open source can join ALUG@UCI’s Discord community and explore their open project repositories. Applications for OpsJam 2027 open through the event website. \nALUG@UCI is currently welcoming sponsors and partners for OpsJam 2027. Organizations interested in supporting student infrastructure talent can find details on the event website. \n\nEvent website: OpsJam 2027\nALUG@UCI: Anteater Linux User Group
