TRAINING PRINCIPLES

Red Hat strives to have the most useful, practical, high quality training on Red Hat Linux available. At the same time, Red Hat encourages and expects Red Hat Linux users to view training as just one component of professional development and skills building.

Training alone is not enough to become a competent user, operator, system administrator or engineer. Appropriate levels and quantities of work experience, reading, research, plus staying current with technology, with best practices, and with user communities are all essential to turning the skills and knowledge in a training program into high quality professional performance on the job.

These courses are designed to provide rapid introduction to essential knowledge and skills, not turn someone into an expert in a week. They are designed to create a basis for further development and real-world practice. Good training can provide a foundation; the participant must do the rest.
