Directive 8570.1 specifies that all Information Assurance (IA) personnel be trained and certified according to their job functions. All IA workforce in the Technical category (IAT) must earn a designated IA security certification and operating system certification for the operating system(s) they support, as required by their employing organization.

| Certification | Job Role Level | Job Role Description | Exam Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| RHCE | Engineer | Set up and manage Linux servers running production network services and security | 5.5 hrs |
| RHCT | Technician | Set up and manage new Linux systems on an existing network | 3 hrs |
The RHCT/RHCE curriculum track consists of 3 courses — RH033, RH133, RH253 — and is aimed at persons who need some review of key concepts or who are new to both UNIX and Linux.
The RHCT Certificate is granted upon passing the RHCT Exam, a performance-based test on live equipment that measures actual competencies at system administration, including installation and configuration of a Red Hat Linux system and attaching it to a live network running network services. The RHCT Exam can be taken on the final day of RH133 Red Hat Linux System Administration (4.5 days), or alone as RH202 RHCT Exam. The RHCT certificate may also be granted to those who take the RHCE Exam and pass all RHCT-specific competencies which are included in the RHCE Exam.
The RHCE certificate is designed to fit in a specific place within the computer industry spectrum of UNIX/Linux user levels.
The RHCE Certificate is granted upon passing the RHCE Exam, a performance-based test on live equipment that measures actual competencies at server system administration, setup of networking services, and network security, and diagnostics and troubleshooting. The RHCE Exam can be taken alone as RH302 RHCE Exam (1-day) or as the final day of the RH300 RHCE Rapid Track course (5-days). RH300 consists of 4 days of intensive training, emphasizing hands-on lab workshops with realistic configuration and administration tasks using Red Hat Linux, plus the Certification Lab Exam on day 5.
The primary goal of RHCE and RHCT certification is to meet the demand of individuals and employers for useful metrics of individual skills and competencies with Red Hat Linux, the largest-selling distribution of Linux. The RHCE Program provides performance based certification at two critical job role levels: Technician (RHCT) and Engineer (RHCE).
RHCE and/or RHCT may be required for selected personnel employed at Red Hat channel partners, IHVs, ISVs, OEMs, and other partners, to provide meaningful assurance of standards.
