Red Hat Linux Training and Certification Courses in Australia

RedHat certification courses teach Linux administration, automation, containers, enterprise system skills for stronger credentials, stronger careers, and professional growth daily.

The Red Hat Certification Pathway

Red Hat certifications build on one another in a clear pathway. Here is how the main ones fit together.

Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA)

The RHCSA, exam EX200, is the foundation and the certification most people start with. It covers the core skills of managing Red Hat Enterprise Linux, including installation, the command line, users and permissions, storage, networking and security. You reach it through the System Administration I and II courses, RH124 and RH134, or the accelerated RH199 rapid track.

Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE)

The RHCE, exam EX294, builds on the RHCSA and focuses on automation with Ansible, which is central to how modern Linux environments are run at scale. It suits administrators who want to prove they can automate and manage systems efficiently, and it is delivered through the RH294 course.

Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA)

The RHCA is the top tier, for experienced engineers who hold the RHCE and go on to earn several further certifications across areas such as the cloud, the data centre, application platforms and development. It represents the deepest level of Red Hat expertise.

Specialist certifications

Beyond the core pathway, Red Hat offers specialist certifications in areas such as OpenShift and container technology, Ansible automation, security and performance tuning. These suit engineers who need depth in a particular area, and we run courses including performance tuning, RH442, alongside the core curriculum.

Red Hat Courses Online and Across Australia

You can study Red Hat with Logitrain in the classroom in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Canberra, live online in real time from anywhere in Australia, or in house at your workplace. Live online students join the same class as the room and work through the labs on real Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems in real time, rather than watching a recording. Classes run full time over consecutive days, or part time to fit around your job. Whichever way you choose, the trainer, the lab access and the course material are the same.

Which Red Hat Course Should You Start With

For almost everyone, the starting point is system administration, through the RH124 and RH134 courses or the accelerated RH199 rapid track, which prepare you for the RHCSA. Once you hold the RHCSA, the RH294 course and the RHCE are the natural next step, taking you into automation with Ansible. From there, the specialist and architect certifications are where experienced engineers head. If you are not sure where you fit, tell our team your background and your goal, and we will point you to the right starting course.

Linux and Red Hat Careers in Australia

Linux runs most of the servers and cloud infrastructure in the world, so Linux skills are among the most dependable in IT, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the enterprise standard. Red Hat certified professionals work as Linux system administrators, infrastructure and automation engineers, cloud engineers and DevOps engineers, across banking, government, telecommunications and technology. Because the certifications are earned through hands on, performance based exams, employers trust that a certified person can actually do the work, which is part of why Red Hat certifications command strong pay. If you want to broaden your Linux skills, see our LPI Linux courses as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Red Hat courses cost in Australia?

Our Red Hat courses are priced per course, and the price includes the course material and mock tests. Every course is backed by our price beat guarantee, so if you find a comparable course cheaper elsewhere, talk to us. Ask us about the exam arrangements for the certification you are aiming at.

Which Red Hat certification should I start with?

For most people the starting point is the RHCSA, the Red Hat Certified System Administrator. You reach it through the RH124 and RH134 courses or the accelerated RH199 rapid track. From there, the RHCE adds automation with Ansible.

What is the difference between RHCSA and RHCE?

The RHCSA is the foundation, covering core Red Hat Enterprise Linux system administration. The RHCE builds on it and focuses on automation with Ansible. You need the RHCSA before you can earn the RHCE.

Are the Red Hat exams hands on?

Yes. Red Hat certification exams are performance based, which means you complete real tasks on a live system rather than answer multiple choice questions. This is why our training is built around hands on practice on real Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems.

Do I need experience to start a Red Hat course?

The RH124 System Administration I course is designed for people new to Linux, so no prior Linux experience is required. The higher courses build on the level below and assume system administration experience.

Can I do Red Hat training online?

Yes. Every Red Hat course we run is available live online in real time, so you can join from anywhere in Australia and complete the labs on real Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems alongside the classroom group.

Where can I do Red Hat training in person?

We run classroom Red Hat courses in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Canberra. If you are in a regional area, you can join the same courses live online, or ask us about in house training.
