Course description

The Red Hat Certified Specialist in Enterprise Application Server Administration exam is a performance-based evaluation of a candidate’s skills and knowledge regarding the administration of enterprise applications based on and using JBoss EAP.

Candidates perform a number of routine system administration tasks and are evaluated on whether they have met specific objective criteria. Performance-based testing means that candidates must perform tasks similar to what they must perform on the job.

The Red Hat Certified Specialist in Enterprise Application Server Administration exam is a hands-on, practical exam that lasts 4 hours. Internet access is not provided during the exam. You will not be permitted to bring any hard copy or electronic documentation into the exam. This prohibition includes notes, books, or any other materials.
