Here is what Red Hat says about how long a certification stays
valid: “The validity period for all RHCEs and RHCTs is now
officially pegged to the release of the Enterprise product
commercially available at the time certification was earned,
and certification shall be current until after one (1) major
release of the Enterprise product. Certificates earned on Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 3 will be current until the release of
Red Hat Enterprise 5. All RHCEs earned on Red Hat Linux 7.3
or prior will be considered current until the release of Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 4. All RHCEs and RHCTs earned on Red Hat
Linux 8.0 and 9 will remain current until the release of Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Validity and current status of an
