I have recently completed Unix SysAdmin1 & Unix SysAdmin2 in the 
Center for Lifelong Learning at Cardiff Uni.
The course was very good, although some of it was very dated, and 
didnt try to teach optional components like LDAP, concentrating on 
shells, drive options and general config. it was also strictly Unix 
not Linux and for me it was interesting to see the differences as i 
had previously never used a Unix machine, just plenty of distros.

I suppose the aim of the gaim is to prove your skills to people and to 
do that the exam would have to be recognised, possibly by non *nix 
users, so my next step would be to do a RH basic sys admin.
I would also stress that I still dont like Redhat/Fedora2, I prefer 
Debian, but I believe that if you play with any distro enough, it 
becomes your own.
