FAQs

Red Hat training develops the hands-on skills and recognised credentials needed to configure, secure, and maintain enterprise Linux systems, preparing you to meet industry standards and perform confidently in real-world IT environments. 

What is Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)?

Red Hat Enterprise Linux is a leading enterprise Linux platform used worldwide for servers, cloud environments, and containerisation. It’s known for stability, security, and long-term support. 

What is the difference between RHCSA and RHCE?

RHCSA and RHCE are professional certifications for Red Hat Enterprise Linux administrators. RHCSA (Red Hat Certified System Administrator) focuses on essential system administration skills, while RHCE (Red Hat Certified Engineer) advances into automation, security, networking, and complex enterprise tasks. 

Which Red Hat course should I start with?

Most learners begin with Red Hat System Administration, which is ideal if you’re new to Linux or system admin. However, it’s important to check which RHEL version you’re using before selecting a course. At StayAhead, we offer training in RHEL 7, RHEL 8 and RHEL 9. 

What are the key differences between RHEL 7, 8, and 9?

RHEL 7 is a stable legacy release using older tools like YUM 3 and iptables. RHEL 8 adds AppStreams, YUM 4/DNF, Cockpit, and stronger security. RHEL 9, built for hybrid cloud and containers, offers updated core packages, enhanced SELinux, and advanced Podman tools, and is the only version used for official Red Hat certification exams. StayAhead offers courses covering RHEL 7, 8, and 9, enabling you to develop skills across all major versions. 

Is Red Hat certification recognised by employers?

Yes. Red Hat certifications such as RHCSA and RHCE are globally recognised and respected across industries. They validate your skills in working with Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems in real scenarios, helping you advance your career in system administration, DevOps and IT infrastructure roles. StayAhead’s Red Hat courses are designed to align with official exam objectives, giving you the practical knowledge and hands-on experience needed for certification success.
