Students looking to acquire skills that make them “job-ready” should learn the distribution of Linux that most enterprises actually use and implement in production systems. As the second largest contributor to the Linux kernel, Red Hat is used by more than 90% of the Fortune Global 500. Generic courses written by third parties by contrast often fail to incorporate real-world scenarios and use-cases that make Red Hat content particularly valuable.
These free courses, along with additional training, will prepare students to pursue one of Red Hat’s coveted Linux certifications: Red Hat Certified System Administrator or Red Hat Certified Engineer. 82% of companies using online job boards to recruit for Linux positions specifically request Red Hat Certified Professionals.
