Overview
Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) is a performance-based test that measures actual competency on live systems. Called the "crown jewel of Linux certifications," RHCE proves an individual's ability to configure networking services and security on servers running a Red Hat OS. RHCE was recently named the hottest certification in all of IT by CertCities.com.
The RHCE Exam
Becoming a Red Hat Certified Engineer requires passing a 3.5 hour hands-on exam. There are four different approaches to preparing for the exam depending on your existing level of Linux expertise.
