Red Hat Learning Community celebrates 100,000 members

The Red Hat Learning Community (RHLC) celebrates a monumental milestone this week as it exceeds 100,000 members! At its launch in September of 2018, the main goal was simple: provide a collaborative space for open source learners to connect as they optimize their skills in working with Red Hat products. As the core of that mission has remained true since its launch, Red Hat has strived to provide our users what they need in order to collaborate, learn, build skills and meet their individual learning and career goals. 

What is the Red Hat Learning Community?

RHLC is a collaborative platform that enables social learning among open source technologists who have the goal of building proficiency as they learn how to work with Red Hat products and technology. When visiting RHLC at learn.redhat.com, visitors can find meaningful discussions, Q&A, tutorials, best practices, tips and tricks, resources, learning videos and more.

This platform also serves as a space to nurture Red Hat Training and Certification students before, during and after completion of Red Hat courses and certification exams, offering social learning and collaboration tools for students, as well as access to instructors and experienced subject matter experts. RHLC continues to focus on enhancements to foster connectivity and collaboration among people passionate about sharing, teaching and learning open source technology.

As RHLC hits the 100,000-member milestone, the platform boasts more than 18,000 overall posts, 3 million page views, and thousands of visitors every week.

To celebrate the 100,000-member milestone, RHLC is launching a 100K member badge and contest. Randomly selected winners will receive Red Hat Learning Community travel tote cooler bags.
