PACE Institute Appointed as Red Hat Certified Training Partner

Earn the Topmost IT Certification for Linux System Administrators

Red Hat, the world’s topmost Enterprise training certification body for Linux system administrators has appointed PACE Institute as a Red Hat Certified Training Partner to train students and conduct lectures & exams for Red Hat professional certification. In addition to PACE Institute, there is only one other Red Hat Certified Training Partner in Sri Lanka.

As a Red Hat Certified Training Partner, PACE is authorized to conduct Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA), Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) exams and related training in Sri Lanka.

PACE is fully backed by Red Hat, Inc. & Mr. Neju Paul, Trainer and Consultant at Red Hat recently visited us to discuss details about the next course and new training methodologies. PACE Instructors’ team was trained to be qualified as Red Hat Certified Trainers (RHCI) for the RHCE and RHCSA training programs. They will be providing training on the entire training curriculum designed by Red Hat. Mr. Paul also gave an impressive presentation on Red Hat-Linux and took part in a Q & A session well attended by Linux enthusiasts.

Linux Operating System is being increasingly voluntarily widely accepted, adapted and utilized for a wide variety of purposes and in a wonderfully diverse array of devices. This rapid growth in the usage of Linux OS worldwide is attributed to the factors such as higher security, cost-effectiveness, robust performance, flexibility and stability.

Because of this enormous growth, nearly a million jobs have already been created for Linux Professionals worldwide; yet only a few are qualified to take up the jobs and the unmet demand for Linux Professionals keeps growing on a daily basis.

Red Hat training & certification course is well designed to give more career-oriented skills & knowledge and after 72 hours of lecturing and lab sessions the students will be prepared to sit for the level one examination leading to Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA). PACE, being an institute truly committed to building value plus professionals also coach students to acquire essential soft skills and values demanded by the employers today. So the student straight away becomes a highly skillful and valuable employee enjoying abundant opportunities for career growth. PACE also provides additional Lab sessions for practical training in order to give right knowledge & job exposure.

Red Hat exams are performance-based, meaning that a candidate is given a live system and graded on the ability to accomplish the tasks in the exam rather than simply answer multiple-choice questions. Red Hat offers many other certifications on specific capabilities or configurations of Red Hat Enterprise Linux as well. Information on the RHCE is available at http://www.redhat.com/training/certifications/rhce/

Mr. Kapila Withanage–Director, PACE Institute says, "Red Hat Certifications are in high demand by the most of competitive leading IT organizations and RHCE is one of the Top Ten IT Certifications in the world." He adds, "There is a great need for system administrators with proper and well recognized certification. At PACE, we are not only committed to building students who are coming in to the fast- expanding Linux system administration arena, we're also truly committed to helping system administrators who are already employed and also update their knowledge in this fast growing technological landscape."

We are really lucky to have lecturers in the calibre of Mr. Rohan de Silva (B. Sc. IT Special (Hons.), RHCSA, RHCE, RHCI, RHCDS) who is an industry expert to make sure that our students will have a quality learning experience. Also, the IT Expertise of eBEYONDS-the parent company of PACE, sophisticated technology and infrastructure, and its strategic location in Pannipitiya place PACE on a strong position to provide Red Hat Training.

This presents an equally great opportunity for the employers who want their system administration personnel to be trained in the rigorous Red Hat training programs. The global recognition and acceptance Red Hat enjoys will certainly be to the advantage of employers in terms reliability, flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
