Prince Sultan University collaborated with Red Hat to create the King Salman Education for Employment Program Red Hat Academy. The King Salman Education for Employment Program at Prince Sultan University supports recent college graduates who need more practical training in order to compete in today’s job market.
In fact, just last month HRH Prince Faisal bin Bandar bin Abdulaziz, Governor of Riyadh, laid the cornerstone for the new King Salman Center for Education for Employment building at Prince Sultan University. This center is seen as an important national development project that contributes to building a generation capable of achieving the objectives of economic development in Saudi Arabia.
Red Hat Academy turns academic institutions into centers for enterprise-ready talent by outfitting them with Red Hat training. For more than a decade, Red Hat Academy has supplied high schools and institutions of higher education worldwide that have the required technology and support environments, with hands-on instruction, curriculum, labs, performance-based testing, and instructor support. Red Hat Academy’s web-based curriculum helps create competencies through hands-on, performance-based learning and testing.
Eng. Ibrahim Al Ghemlas, Director of the Community Services and Continuing Education Center at Prince Sultan University said, “Red Hat is a multinational software company providing open source solutions to the enterprise community. They will be collaborating with us to offer multiple certification programs in System Administration and OpenStack Administration”.
“We’re pleased to have Prince Sultan University join us in this growing Red Hat Academy Program,” said Ken Goetz, VP, Global Training and Certification, Red Hat.
