Red Hat Certification Program
Encyclopedia : R : RE : RED : Red Hat Certification Program
The Red Hat Certification Program is Red Hat's professional certification program for Red Hat-related skills such as system administration on Red Hat Linux and Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
The tests are hands-on and involve troubleshooting, installation, and system administration. There are no multiple-choice questions, and everything is done on a live system. Often there is more than one way to configure a service or troubleshoot a problem, and the exam focuses on the end results, not the process that was taken to achieve that result.
The most common and well-known Red Hat certification is the Red Hat Certified Engineer.
