Course Description

The Red Hat Certified Engineer™ course is designed for UNIX- and Linux-experienced users, networking specialists, and system administrators. This 5-day course provides intensive hands-on training on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, and includes the RHCE Certification Lab Exam on day 5. Those who are interested in taking the rapid track course, but who would prefer to defer taking the exam until the later date, or who are not interested in certification may wish to consider RH301.

What you will learn:

Check out the complete course outline.

Prerequisites:

• RH033 Red Hat Linux Essentials
• RH131 Red Hat Linux System Administration
• or RH133 Red Hat Linux System Administration (and RHCT Exam)
• RH253 Red Hat Linux Networking and Security Administration
• or equivalent experience with UNIX; LAN/WAN fundamentals Internetworking with TCP/IP, knowledge or experience setting up NFS, HTTP, DNS, FTP, NIS, DHCP, and other networking services, and security

In order to ensure that the prerequisites for RH300 are met, you should expect to receive a high score for RH033 (36 points or more) and moderate scores for RH133 and RH253 (24 points or more each).

The prerequisites are important! Participants arriving without a large portion of these prerequisites will make less than optimal progress in the training and will be unlikely to pass the certification exam. Please do not sign up for RH300 unless you are experienced with systems administration or are a power user in UNIX / Linux environments. If you need training on the above prerequisites, please see Skills Courses.
