RedHatCertificate programs are employing opportunity booster in the area of Redhat linux applications , cloud ,administration and networking.

They give the IT professionals best opportunity in hiring by companies.

The driver development is a differnt domain where RH certification is not yet given , if i understand correctly.

This is for embedded domain.
