The three months are for both the courses and the series, but we can extend your study period if necessary, in exceptional circumstances. A student must have completed at least 50% of the course before we will consider granting an extension.
Your readiness to take and pass the RHCE Exam depends on many factors, and is up to you to assess. Individual outcomes will vary.
The RHCE Standard Track in eLearning or ILT, is designed to cover the required Linux system administration skills tested in the RHCE Exam. Certain skills such as Networking Fundamentals and TCP/IP must be taken from other vendors. Red Hat clearly states that professional-level competence requires high quality training to be supplemented by hands-on experience and flight time.
Taking the RHCE Exam is itself a learning experience, so if you feel ready do not be afraid to attempt the Exam!
The three month study time begins as soon as you have completed your registration process.

No, our courses are delivered 100% over the internet, and there is no special software required. All you need is a current Java-enabled browser on a Windows, Macintosh, or Unix platform. To complete the exercises in this course you will need to access the lab feature using an SSH (Secure Shell) client. Flash from Macromedia, Inc, enhances the eLearning graphic environment, and can be downloaded for free.
Having Red Hat Linux on your computer is not required to take Red Hat eLearning. But if you intend to develop professional-level skills and/or you want to prepare to pass the RHCE Exam, Red Hat strongly recommends that you obtain an Intel PC and install Red Hat Linux on it. Use the Linux machine solely for your exercises and to get hands-on experience. Use your other machine to take the eLearning courses. That way, whatever you do to your Linux machine will not affect the primary computer you rely on.
Once you become familiar with Linux and able to administer your own workstation you can use it as your primary computer, or do anything you want, since you will be in control!
Quizzes can be taken as many times as you desire. But the test at the end of each eLearning course can be taken only once. When the test answers are submitted the test is automatically scored and locked.
You have successfully completed an eLearning course when you have completed the course, and received 70% or more of the potential points available in the course.
