Red Hat Engineering Certification


After looking at the course that Red Hat offers online I see that it's quite an expense.

Code:
    Configuring static routes, packet filtering, and network address translation
    Setting kernel runtime parameters
    Configuring an Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) initiator
    Producing and delivering reports on system utilization
    Using shell scripting to automate system maintenance tasks
    Configuring system logging, including remote logging
    Configuring a system to provide networking services, including HTTP/HTTPS, File Transfer Protocol (FTP), network file system (NFS), server message block (SMB), Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), secure shell (SSH) and Network Time Protocol (NTP)
The RH199 Course is $3,500.00 and the RH 254 course is $3,500.00. That's $6,700.00 spent w/o getting the Red Hat Engineering degree.

The Exam fee with the Linux Foundation is $300.00 and the exam can be scheduled anytime during the 12 months that you purchased it.

Anyone have an idea how one could learn those skills listed above to take the Exam with the Linux Foundation?
(besides taking the online training with RH)

This is pretty misleading, Red Hat exams do not require you to attend in-class sessions, but to get RHCE it will be $800 USD cost ($400 for RHCSA and $400 for RHCE) where you can get LFCE for $300 USD.

Linux Foundation also offers training which can be delivered onsite or virtual

https://training.linuxfoundation.org...aining-courses

LFCE training - $2750
LFCS Training - $2750

Total training $5500,

Or you can use the self-paced training materials which can be bundled with the exam for an extra $100.

Even though LFCE does not require the certification of LFCS, you still need to know the concepts of LFCS. Also, Linux Foundation offers discounts throughout the year where you might be able to get it for cheaper. Good luck on your exams

Red Hat, I found out is not the only company that offers the Certification.
I found a list of company's in the RH Certified Engineer Linux Study Guide.

Brainbench
www.brainbench.com

Cyber Tech Institute
www.getcertified.com

Linux Professional Institute
www.lpi.org

Prosoft Training
www.prosofttraining.com

Sair, Inc.
www.linuxcertification.org

I haven't been to each site but have listed the other company's as a help to others.

Does anyone know where I would find a testing site to take the exam?

Prosoft Training didn't offer the RHCE Exam and I didn't see any information on the website that had anything close to any RH exams.

Sair, Inc and the website www.linuxcertification.org took me to a site that's either in Chinese or Japanese so that wasn't much help.

I did fine a Testing Center in Columbia Maryland (that is if your in MD) that you can call and schedule an Exam and the fee is $400.00 to take the Exam.

UMBC Training Center
6996 Columbia Gateway Drive
Suite 100 Columbia, MD 21046
443-692-6600

Here's a few good things if your studying to get your certification:-

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
System Administrator's Guide

https://access.redhat.com/documentat...uide-en-US.pdf

Hands-on Guide to the Red Hat ® Exams​
http://www.shafaan.com/Hands-on%20Gu...and%20RHCE.pdf

http://www.pawanbahuguna.com/rhel-7-books-rhce-rhcsa/

Read and do the exercises. If you get some of the questions wrong go back over the material and don't give up.

Good luck on your exams-
