Mr. 100%, I applaud your high scores, but I have to take issue with this small matter. How does having training from Red Hat "make the course easier?" That's just... too funny to think about. Of COURSE it makes it easier, it's training. Why would anyone go to training if it didn't help them pass the exam? That's the sole purpose of the training material and the classroom instruction. The ONLY reason Red Hat doesn't want the material "shared" as you stated, (but it would be better to see proof of that), is because they want to make money, money, money. Remember, they charge thousands of dollars for that material. That means anyone with a few thousand dollars can get the material. Doesn't that just sound... wrong? Simple matter of who has more green bucks in their pocket. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ed Wilts, RHCE Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2004 8:07 PM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: RHCE exam prep advice OK, this really is the last posting since I'm home and can actually read the relevant section in the training manual - page 2 in the introduction. There are other pieces on that page that I'm not going to bother quoting. "This curriculum contains proprietary informatino which is for the exlusive use of customer of Red Hat, Inc., and is not to be shared with personnel other than those in attendance at this course." "For use only by a student enrolled in a Red Hat training course taught by Red Hat, Inc., or a Red Hat Training Partner. Any other use is a violation of U.S. and international copyrights." RHCEs who share training materials that make it easier for everybody else cheapen the value of the certification for the rest of us. We do NOT want "paper" RHCEs like there are for other certifications. The exam is supposed to be hard - this increases its value. I can be proud of my 100% marks knowing that most of you aren't capable of duplicating it (and I realize that some of you are capable of earning the RHCE but don't have the opportunity to take the exam). -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
