After 2 years in the making Offensive Security announces the new Kali Linux Certified Professional Cert

https://www.kali.org/news/introducing-kali-linux-certified-professional/

Looks like the A+ of the Kali Linux Distro. First step into using Kali as an OS.

Not necessarily how to use its hacking tools.

learning how to build custom packages, host repositories, manage and orchestrate multiple instances, build custom ISOs, and much, much, more.

Along with the release of the new certification, they announced the first "Official Kali Book" named

Kali Linux Revealed: Mastering the Penetration Testing Distribution.
scheduled for release on June 5th, 2017

hmm not sure why anyone other than a pen testing company would do this lol

Scale and deploy Kali Linux in the enterprise.

internal auditing, IA folks who are in the company.

buying this book when it comes out.

Love pen testing and this book will help me learn the in and outs

Well just remember, this book isn't about pen testing. It's more about Kali imaging and deployment and how to use the OS itself and how to customize an image for your organization.

well yeah.

Thats the hard part. ive had several issues in the past trying to even get kali to install

you may want to try other Linux distros to get your feet wet and learn how the OS works, then you'll be able to find out what you may be doing wrong or how to fix it.
