cricfan said:u can take up exams without joing courses....but u will b paying 20k for exams..if u join a redhat partner institute ..u will b paying 12.5k...
here in blore...there r quite a few redhat institutes....stg,llc,vtp...i joined vtp...course fee was 14k..and no those course materials r not available to u by joing some redhat forum/community...coz its clearly printed on every page of the book that its only for students of partner training institutes....i think darkie is talking abt redhat documents...its not exactly tailor-made for cert purposes...once u finish the course materials u can thoroughly go through those documents for knowledge purpose...
regarding training institutes...obviously there will b plenty in mumbai....just talk to reception and get some idea abt the teaching and all...regarding infrastructure..unlike cisco institutes u dont really need hifi infrastructure....10 pc's is more than sufficient...saying this coz dont come to a conclusion by looking at the infrastructure..normally thats what students do when they think of joing ccna/ccnp course...and they r right in this case..
and yes...dont forget to interact with students of that institute...u can find those guy dhuaafying in pan beeda shops nearby...lol...and dont pay beyond 15K for courses..redhat materials r more than sufficient for the exams...
and while taking exams be fast....thats where i lost out...will b taking up upgrade exams soon(rhct to rhce)...and at last..sorry for my crappy english...
Tks again cric.... certain things i might aski which might bore you ..i went to niit&aptech am being told 18k for redhat cert&you are saying not tp pay more than 15k?:huh:
can i bargain?:bleh: maybe due to city there might be diff...also diff institute s have diff fee structure...dunno why...:huh:
i spoke to office people at niit&they showed me their labs, classroom,told about their respective prof etc etc...
i will definetly ask student who have enroled for this redhat cert regarding the institute... does this exam involve more dedication coz i have coll too&its exams coming...
