Red Hat training and certifications are highly respected across the industry as enterprises, governments and other organizations continue turning to open source to meet mission-critical IT needs. With the growth of open source, it’s becoming increasingly important for organizations to have a workforce that is trained and savvy in open source solutions.

Red Hat training equips IT organizations and professionals with the knowledge and hands-on skills to successfully support Red Hat and JBoss deployments. As a testament to the strength of open source and Red Hat’s training and certifications, we’ve once again been recognized by IDC, ranking in the leader category of its IDC MarketScape: Worldwide IT Education and Training 2011 Vendor Analysis (IDC #226469) for the fourth time.

IDC’s study assessed eleven vendors participating in the IT education and certification market. Red Hat was placed in the “Leader” category, with Lawson, HP and Cisco. Evaluations were based on a framework and set of parameters that assessed vendors relative to one another and to factors expected to be most conducive to success in a given market during the short and long term. Other vendors included in the study were CA Technologies, Cisco, Citrix, Hewlett Packard, IBM, Lawson, Microsoft, Oracle, SAP and Symantec.
