Is RHCE worth taking?

[aditya.shevade]

Hi

There is going to be an RHCE (Red Hat Certified Engineer) course in my college. I was thinking maybe I would join it.... What I need to know is, is it worth taking? I mean, does it help?

Please give me your opinions. Will love to hear from someone who has experienced it.

If its in ur college then its a golden opportunity! DO take it! I too wanted to do a RHCE course, but damn just don't have enough time these days.

In European countries and even china- LPIC (http://lpi.org) too is famous.The plus point is LPIC is vendor neutral and though it is a write only exam taken in pearsonvue authorised or prometric centres,It is designed by inputs from all major Linux players.even RedHat too.also they cover pkg managers also very well esp debian dpkg and redhat rpm.also LPIC is cheaper afaik(around Rs5000?!) and u get a full certification on Linux including networking too,while RHCE is basically a networking certification although their Practical only exam is well created(takes A DaY!)
