By Derrick Miller on 1/23/2026

Having the opportunity to work some hand-on lab practices has helped me understand the file structure of Linux better.

By Brandi Geister on 9/24/2025

This has been a great course! This is the third RHEL 9 course I've used, and this one has been by far the best. I love that it starts at a ground level and all examples are explained in-depth. I also appreciate that the videos are short (but detailed) and there is a large focus on labs to practice. I'm also using the Red Hat RHCSA 9 Cert Guide, and the labs here are better (though the content for both compliment each other).

By Jorge Munoz on 7/23/2025

The course is really comprehensive, easy to understand and builds upon itself so you're never feeling lost. I think there are some quiz questions that are wrong, but I also went through it fast because I took this mostly as a refresher. Definitely recommend though

By Daniel Kral on 4/29/2025

This was an excellent refresher course for me since it has been a while since I have supported Linux. Very helpful!

By Rodger Sweet on 2/24/2025

This course was somewhat a review but I am still gaining more insight which will make me a better admin moving forward.

By Linh Morales on 2/18/2025

Great content and material. Very concise but some exam questions were not in previous lecture so I had to search online to answer them.

By Anonymized User on 10/29/2024

The quizzes do not align with the course content. For example, materials covered much later in the section will be on the earlier quiz. This makes for a confusing quiz taking experience. Captions are also auto-generated, which includes lots of misspellings.

By Mohamed Ahmed on 7/30/2024

I am very pleased to find this course, the explanations are clear, labs are informative. And what I like the most about it, is breaking the course into short lectures and videos, which helps in getting the information easily and being able to follow through even at a slow pace of learning. The instructor is presenting the information clearly and easy to understand.

By Zaheer din on 1/18/2024

From the get-go, stating what we will get from this course is enough for me to look forward to. So excited!!!

By Tech Start on 12/26/2023

This is a comprehensive course module on RH124, which is entirely focused on RHEL 9. It has been thoughtfully designed and includes quizzes, practice labs, and assignments.
