The Business Value of Red Hat Training

Red Hat Enterprise Linux has firmly established itself as a preferred delivery vehicle for modern applications and as a platform for cloud infrastructure. The trust Linux has earned has been developed by building ecosystems, rich application portfolios, a reliable environment that offers scale and security, and robust application support that enterprise customers require. These benefits aren’t simply built into the application. These capabilities are enabled by well-skilled developers, administrators, and infrastructure management teams. IDC research has found that training impacted IT professionals consistently increases both individual capability and the ultimate business value of the supported technology.

IDC conducted interviews with IT staff who have completed Red Hat training courses through the Red Hat Training and Certification program to understand the impact on their skills, performance, and productivity levels. IDC’s research demonstrates that, compared with staff who have not completed training, employees with Red Hat training apply knowledge about new technologies much better, work more efficiently and effectively, onboard faster, and are regarded as higher-performing employees. This is important both for development teams that can deliver new software and features faster and for other IT teams responsible for delivering IT services to support business operations.
