Pass the RHCSA by your exam date
Tell us your test date and we’ll build a personalized, week-by-week plan through a fully simulated RHEL environment — interactive tasks, spaced repetition, timed exams, and a live readiness score. No VM needed.
How it works
Study
Learn each topic with guided content, worked examples, and interactive quizzes.
Practice
Solve real tasks in a simulated terminal. SM-2 surfaces your weak areas automatically.
Pass
Take timed exams with domain-weighted tasks and reboot validation — just like the real EX200.
Why CertForged
Realistic Terminal
140+ simulated Linux commands with full filesystem, users, services, storage, SELinux, and containers. Every command gives real output.
Spaced Repetition
SM-2 algorithm tracks what you know and what you don't. Due items appear right when you need to review them.
Timed Exams
Domain-weighted exams with 8, 12, or 16 tasks. Color-coded timer, score reports, and 65% pass threshold.
Instant Feedback
Every task validates your work in real-time with multi-check breakdowns. Know exactly what passed and what didn't.

Evidence, not a promise
The person building your prep has sat—and passed—the exam.
Austin built CertForged while preparing for the RHCSA, then earned the certification himself. That experience shapes the product’s focus on speed, command recall, persistence, and hands-on validation.
Three objective scores from the official result
Shell scripting 100% · Networking 100% · Security 100%
This verifies the founder’s certification—not a guaranteed customer outcome or a Red Hat endorsement of CertForged.
Customer pass stories
“I recently passed RHCSA V10 and I mostly studied using CertForged. The information in the study materials is very helpful for the exam objectives and I really enjoyed the hands-on practice in the terminals. The best feature for me was the daily reviews. Every day I would have a list of tasks to go back and revisit and I really think that helped me keep everything fresh in my mind. If you truly master everything on CertForged then you can pass the exam.”
“I'm just getting into RHEL from being an Ubuntu server user — this will definitely be helpful in getting that cert.”
“Great stuff, will use it to prepare for my ex200.”
“Do you realize you are historically changing the game?”
