Set off your career

LinuxTag fosters the visitor's value, because most of its offers help to build your knowledge of Linux and the open source ecosystem. There is the free conference program, there are workshops, a big job wall and specials like the Hacking Contest and the RootCamp. You find details to LinuxTags own possibilities in the navigation point "Program", many of which will spin your education.
