Introduction:
The Red Hat certification program consists of the RHCT, RHCE, and RHCA designations.
Editor's Notes:
The Red Hat certification program is high quality and utilizes hands-on lab testing methods. For these reasons, the Red Hat certification program is well-respected. One should not attempt Red Hat certification exams unless you have real world, hands-on experience. The exams are very expensive and run as high as $750.
