What is Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE)?

Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) is a professional-level, 4-month instructor-led course that prepares you for the EX294 exam at INFOTICS Academy. Delivery: Live online / on campus. The fee is shared individually after you apply. Register your interest and we will tell you when the next intake 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 program 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.

Updated outline: Red Hat is moving EX294 to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 with Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 (course AU294 v10). This course teaches on RHEL 10 and ansible-core 2.16 with Ansible development tools, and your trainer covers any differences for the version you book.

Why is Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) worth it?
