RHEL 8 Exam

Hello All! 

I wish to go for the RHCE 8 exam.
I previously cleared both the RHCSA 7 (expired Oct 21) and RHCE 7 exam (Expired in November of 21).

Do I need to retake or take the RHCSA 8 as it is a different version or can I directly go for the RHCE 8 exam?

Thank you!

Hi Yama,

Thank you very much for joining our community, and welcome to the Red Hat Learning Community!

Your question is a great one! Here's the answer:
Certification Renewal Information

In short, every candidate must have a valid (non-expired) RHCSA to earn the RHCE certification. If you currently hold a valid/active RHCSA, passing the EX294 exam will certify you as an RHCE. (Note: The version of the exam does not affect this requirement.)

@Yama You can directly take RHCE exam but you wont be able to download the certificate unless you have valid RHCSA.

I strongly recommend you to go for RHEL 9  for both RHCSA ( EX200 ) & RHCE ( EX294 ).

Thank you for your response!
That makes sense, going for the latest version -  RHCE 9
