Description
Duration: 5 days
The hands-on nature of this exam makes the hands-on experience a critical facet of preparation. The certification exam is performance-based, meaning that candidates must perform tasks on a live system, rather than answering questions about how one might perform those tasks. We cover this key aspect in our 5 Day Exam RHCSA Exam Prep Boot Camp. The RHCSA course combines the foundations and applications established and covered in Red Hat System Administration I and Red Hat System Administration II. The rapid pace of review and consolidated course timeline allows you to focus on practical application, making this offering best suited to those who already have significant experience with Linux administration.
Our instructors don’t just teach from a textbook, they design, write, and update our curriculum. Our materials are always up to date and synchronized with the latest exam objectives. This course covers what is needed to pass the RHCSA exam. Please see the attendee requirements and prerequisites below as this is not a beginner class and the skills mentioned below are needed in order for you to get the most out of this exam prep.
