Actually, the Red Hat course I was considering does not result, by itself, in 
any certification.  It is part of a sequence of courses (RH Essentials, 
SysAdmin, Shell Scripting minicourse, Networks/Security) leading to 
certification.  And the last step in the certification process itself is 
supposedly very demanding, an 8-hour exam that includes hands-on tasks and 
problems.  You can check out the Red Hat site's training section.

The indications from John Bryce and Red Hat tell me that the course is indeed 
knowledge or skills oriented, not just for certification.  Then again, I have 
no personal experience with the course or its cachet in the field.  Hence, my 
inquiries.

Also, are there other frameworks out there (in Israel) for Linux instruction?

Thanks!

courses I gave (sys-admin, net-admin, kernel, Perl, what'snot)
where not certification oriented, but rather knowledge oriented.
This way I know that most of my students actually came for *learning*.
