(I don't speak for Red Hat but I do speak as someone who's written about any number of certifications.) The Red Hat certification is on skills, it's a hands-on program. While history and licenses are important issues, they really don't belong in a skill-based certification unless there is some kind of scenario-based question testing your understanding of what you can and can't do. Certification is about knowing HOW to do things. Ethics, licenses, and history are things that people should be interested in and pursue on their own. There's certainly plenty of places to learn about them, both freely available and not. -- Dee-Ann LeBlanc Lots of things Linux http://www.Dee-AnnLeBlanc.com/ _______________________________________________ Subscription and Archive: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/open-source-now-list/ - For K12OS technical help join K12OSN: <https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn>
