I will get back to you on that. What classes you were looking at were the ones originally conceived just about six months ago. We are working on getting an official RHCE program at CompUSA. I will forward your email to the ones responsible for setting up these programs. Its like I said before, the more people that show an interest and sign up with no obligation at this point, will create and dictate what CompUSA will do by setting up the testing and in some cases include the test in a package deal. I took the Linux + class, which was taught by Joe Bransfield, and took the Linux + test and passed with flying colors. On the other hand many people wanted the LC test to be included which is a totally different certification process. I recommend getting as many people together and having them send me emails in regards to their interest in RHCE or LC certification classes. I will get this done with enough support. CompUSA has a greater infrustructure to do this than any other entity on the island. And they will when enough interest is presented. I was told this by the director of training Mark Sullivan himself. Lets team up and get this done. I want my RHCE as well.
