This class covers command line bash commands. No real linux administration was discussed. If you are good setting up scripts then you could skip the class. I had only rudimentary script experience ( half deciphering How To's ). This class add a great deal to my vocabulary. For my brother, who has experience with bash said the class filled in a lot of holes in his self taught training.
I don't know if this helps too much - the class costing what it does - but I found the class very stimulating and worth it. I am still NO bash expert or even that competent, but I do understand a lot more code when I see it and can travel around and manipulate the system better.
