Red Hat launches a new training and certification program for telecom innovations. The programme focuses on the skills needed to build Network Function Virtualization (NFV) clouds and technologies. These are techniques that can help to roll out and set up 5G networks.
Known as the Red Hat Certified Architect Program in Telco Cloud, the program also helps Red Hat Certified Engineers and Red Hat Certified Architects gain the knowledge needed to effectively use virtualized and cloud-native features when building a telecommunications infrastructure and services.
New certifications
Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA) in Infrastructure and RHCA in Enterprise Applications are Red Hat’s highest achievable certifications. The Telco Cloud Program consists of a certification path that is recommended for telecom professionals and leads to RHCA in Infrastructure. Program participants acquire the skills needed to build an open, innovative new-generation infrastructure that includes core-to-edge processes and technologies, enabling them to create full-scale NFV clouds more effectively.
Participants must first obtain the Red Hat Certified Engineer certificate, and then the following additional certifications:
- Red Hat Certified System Administrator in Red Hat OpenStack
- Red Hat Certified Engineer in Red Hat OpenStack
- Red Hat Certified Specialist in Ceph Storage Administration
- Red Hat Certified Specialist in Ansible Automation
- Red Hat Certified Specialist in Configuration Management
According to Randy Russell, director of certification at Red Hat, these programs are a good way for engineers and architects to get the right skills they need in the new generation of telecommunications. The Red Hat Certified Architect Program in Telco Cloud helps them gain a better understanding of the technologies and processes that support the new generation of telecommunications infrastructure, says Russell.
Red Hat offers training for all these certifications. They are available worldwide in several languages through various self-study opportunities and lessons with teachers.
