Hi everybody!

Got 2 questions regarding RHLS premium subscription. 

1) Does it include also include Virtual Training classes?

2) Are Live Sessions being recorded for future view?

TIA.

Hello @Hayk !

Yes, it includes Virtual training class.

AFAIK, the sessions are live instructor-led  and it is not recorded for future view.

Can some confirm please? Are RHLS Premium Virtual Trainings - Live Lessons being recorded or not? Many trainings are during night in my time zone…

[Hayk]

Also, is their content different from recorded classes (e.g. different RHEL versions etc) or it is the the same? Thanks

@Hayk -

RHLS-P sessions are never ever recorded and each one is unique. These are live 3-hour sessions meant to cover a module (generally a chapter) from the book. These are to compliment the RHLS self-paced course and video classroom. 

RHLS premium allows time with a live instructor to ask questions and get clarification. They are not a repeat nor are some even close to the style and delivery method used for the self-paced video classroom. 

The live VT courses are a totally separate offering as those are the same thing as an "onsite" course with a live instructor that is delivered in a single week in sessions that have a duraction of either 6 or 8 hours. These are priced indivudally as a course and again are not the same as the video classroom or the delivery methods and styles in the RHLS-P session.

RHLS-P courses go across timezones and are generally delivered by regional instructors located in those timezones. I can't speak to the schedule, but I know that there has been some desire for North America to operate a few premium sessions in the evening hours. I believe we will be starting this pilot in October, so look at the schedule then.

Hi, @Travis! Thank you for clarifications.

>>> These are live 3-hour sessions meant to cover a module (generally a chapter) from the book. 

Which book exactly, could you confirm?

So virtual trainings are not included in RHLS premium subscription and are not recorded as well, right? 

Thank you!

@Hayk -

Unfortunately, I can't confirm exactly the book as the sessions are unique. Each session on the schedule should tell which version of the course it goes with. Generally speaking, the sessions are always delivered on the most current version of the course and the most current version of the book. However, there have been instances where we have had multiple versions of the same course suported and in demand. The session schedule should let you know which version of the course you will be using and then you can look at RHLS and see exactly which version of the book will be used.

As for virtual training courses (VT), those are also never recorded based on privacy and other reasons.

The only recordings we ever have are the self-paced video classrooms. It shows the instructor and nothing else. No Red Hat live course is ever recorded.

Thanks, @Travis. And virtual trainings are not included in RHLS premium, right?

[Travis]

Correct. That was answered earlier. The VT course is the same as an instructor-led onsite course and can be either public or private. These are purchased as an individual class and delivered a week at a time generally with no additional access to labs. The VT courses have been given extended labs for 45 days but there is no access to other lab environments nor is there access to the video classroom like they’re with an RHLS subscription.

I see. Thanks for the information!
