Description
Duration: 5 days
The hands-on nature of this exam makes hands-on experience a critical facet of preparation. The certification exam is performance-based, meaning that candidates must perform tasks on a live system, rather than answering questions about how one might perform those tasks. We cover this key aspect in our 5 Day Exam RHCE Exam Prep.
Our instructors don’t just teach from a textbook, they design, write, and update our curriculum. Our materials are always up to date and synchronized with the latest exam objectives. This course covers what is needed to pass the RHCE exam. Please see the attendee requirements and prerequisites below as this is not a beginner class and the skills mentioned below are needed in order for you to get the most out of this exam prep. This exam is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and Red Hat Ansible Engine 2.8.
- The performance-based Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) exam for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 (EX294) tests your knowledge and skill in managing multiple systems using Red Hat Ansible Engine and executing common system administration tasks across a number of systems with Ansible. The skills tested in this exam are the foundation for system administration across many Red Hat products.
