The Red Hat Certification Program are IT Professional certifications for Red Hat products and general Linux related skills such as system administration on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
All certifications are given after passing exams. The program distinguishes itself in that the exams are performance-based, meaning that students must perform tasks on a live system, rather than answering multiple choice questions.
The program was launched in January 1999. As of 2010, there are nearly 75,000 Red Hat certified professionals spanning 162 countries. GoCertify considers it "the most prominent Linux certification programs".

And said to be good,
And wear her red hood,
And look for skunk tracks
In the snow with an ax—
And do everything!”

“Every one knows about the young man who falls in love with the chorus-girl because she can kick his hat off, and his sister’s friends can’t or won’t. But the youth who marries her, expecting that all her departures from convention will be as agile or as delightful to him as that, is still the classic example of folly.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
“... here hundreds sit and play Bingo; here the bright lights of Broadway burn through a sea haze; here Somebodies tumble over other Somebodies and over Nobodies as well.”
