>Red Hat last week expanded its Red Hat Certified Engineer training
>and certification program to five new cities - Dallas, Denver,
>Houston, Los Angeles and Seattle - expanding the program to a total
>of 17 cities around the country.
>
>The RHCE program is a multicourse training program that has two
>tracks, standard and fast. The program trains and tests its
>participants on live Linux systems. In addition to providing
>knowledge and training on Red Hat Linux, the program also can provide
>fast verification of credentials to employers when graduates apply
>for jobs as Linux sys admins.
>
>In the past, Red Hat has been criticized for having too few training
>and certification centers, causing companies to spend extra money in
>order to send employees to RHCE courses in distant cities if no
>courses were available locally. This expansion could be seen as a
>reaction to those critics:

>Similar to certification programs such as Cisco's certified engineer
>program, or Microsoft's Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer track,
>Red Hat's RHCE could be useful for network professionals looking to
>add another certificate to their resume, or for long-time Linux users
>who want to solidify their knowledge with a structured education
>program. Since the RHCE education and testing program was started in
>1999, more than 12,500 people have taken Red Hat courses, and over
>3,000 RHCE certificates have been issued, according to Red Hat.
