Who Needs to Attend

  • Those who have taken the exam before, but have not passed it
  • Those who have taken the Standard Track (i.e., RH033, RH133, RH253) as preparation for the exam
  • Those who have taken the RH301 Red Hat Linux Rapid Track course
  • Those who have taken the exam under an earlier version of Red Hat Linux, but are conversant in the current version and wish to update their certification
  • Those with extensive system administration experience on the current version of Red Hat Linux, or with extensive experience on a recent version who are also familiar with changes between that version and the current version who have prepared for the exam on their own

Global Knowledge strongly recommends that experienced Unix system administrators new to Red Hat Linux take RH300, as it will provide the most direct migration of their existing skills and the most concise preparation for the exam.

 

Prerequisites

System administrators with experience on operating systems such as Windows NT, Windows 2000, and NetWare who are not familiar with Linux or Unix should take the Standard Track of RH033, RH133, and RH253 before sitting for the exam.

Course Highlights

The certification exam consists of three parts conducted in a single day. Two of the three sections of the exam are performance-based, meaning that candidates must perform tasks on a live system, rather than answering questions about how one might perform those tasks.

The RHCE® exam consists of two sections:

  • Section I: Troubleshooting and System Maintenance (2.5 hours)
  • Section II: Installation and Configuration (3 hours)

In order to pass the Red Hat Certified Engineer exam under the current version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, you must meet all of the following requirements:

  • a score of 80 or higher on Section I, consisting of five compulsory and five optional problems;
  • successful completion of the five Section I compulsory troubleshooting problems within one hour of that section's start time;
  • 70 percent or more on the RHCT-level skills in Section II; and
  • 70 percent or more on the RHCE-level skills in Section II.

These last two requirements enable RHCEs to demonstrate that they possess both RHCT-level and RHCE-level skills, as well as enable a person who only has RHCT level skills to earn RHCT if they pass the required competencies.

The Certification Lab Exam is bundled with RH300 if you choose to take them together.

Global Knowledge and Red Hat do not guarantee that anyone who takes one or all of the courses in the Red Hat Certification program will pass a Red Hat exam. On-the-job experience, in combination with high-quality training, is the best way to build skills and prepare for a Red Hat exam. The exam itself is a hands-on learning experience, and many of those who do not pass on the first try come away with a knowledge of what they need to work on to pass the exam on a retake.
