Certified Unix System Administrator (CUSA) Renamed to CSA
The Certified Unix System Administrator (CUSA) title (originally launched by SCO but now operated by Caldera International) has been renamed to a more generic title: Certified System Administrator (CSA). According to Jennifer Heldenbrand of Caldera Education, this was done so that the CSA title can also be used to indicate expertise in Linux system administration. The change is part of an overall update of Caldera's certification offerings. The three level program now incorporates Linux at each level. Individuals who wish to demonstrate expertise with Unix and Linux administration can earn the Master ACE title.
