What is Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE)?

Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) is a professional-level, 4 months instructor-led course that prepares you for the EX294 exam at INFOTICS Academy in Karachi. Delivery: Live online / on-site (Karachi). The course fee is PKR 90,000. Register your interest and we will tell you when the next batch opens.

RHCE turns a Linux administrator into an automation engineer. Instead of configuring servers one at a time, you describe the desired state in Ansible playbooks and apply it to hundreds of hosts consistently.

The programme covers control-node setup, inventories, ad-hoc commands, playbooks, variables and facts, conditionals and loops, handlers, Jinja2 templates, roles and collections, Ansible Vault and system-administration automation for users, storage, networking, firewalld and SELinux. As in the real exam, most of your time is spent writing and debugging playbooks.
