July 21, 2020
RIT Croatia began a
collaborative partnership with the Red Hat Academy (https://www.redhat.com/en/services/training/red-hat-academy), an open-source, web-deployed and web-managed
education program designed to provide academic institutions, faculty, and
students with courseware, training and learning materials, and other resources,
related mostly to cloud computing, enterprise software development
technologies, and Linux operating system.
Red Hat is one of the
world’s leaders in enterprise open-source software as well as the provider of
the leading enterprise Linux platform, recognized by more than 90% of Fortune
Global 500 companies. For more than a decade, Red Hat Academy is supplying
academic institutions worldwide with practical instructions and labs,
curriculum materials, and instructor support, thus helping educational institutions
to create competencies through hands-on, performance-based learning. At Red
Hat, they believe that closing the technology skills gap now is vitally
important to the future of enterprise software, and the opportunity to do so
should be available to all. Red Hat’s program is based on the premise that
learning involves not just thinking, but doing.
Dr. Branko Mihaljević,
Senior Lecturer and Research Associate at RIT Croatia, volunteered to serve as
a primary contact for the Red Hat Academy program at RIT Croatia, and he also
attended the Red Hat Virtual Training Partner Conference on July 7-9, in
particular, Red Hat Academy Track presenting many benefits and success stories
related to this program. "We are excited to start this collaboration and there
are many open-source resources and educational materials within the Red Hat
Academy program which will provide benefits to our students and faculty,” said
Dr. Mihaljević. Red Hat Academy delivers a well-rounded curriculum with
globally standardized materials in multiple courseware formats, all freely
available through the web-based Red Hat Academy portal and designed to position
students for cutting-edge IT jobs, vouchers for discounted Red Hat
certification exams available to instructors and students, as well as free
access to the large Red Hat Learning Community, which directly introduces
students and instructors to subject matter experts on Red Hat technologies and
industry trends. The current Red Hat Program curriculum offers several
instructor training courses, student guides, and flexible lab options from the
Core System Administration, Middleware Development, and Cloud Computing
(OpenStack) topics.
