Official training is good, but you need experience more than training. You should already be using Linux and if you're using RHEL or a clone, you're starting out good - but even Ubuntu or Debian would be very helpful training your skills. So don't be choosy. Setup a file server and/or webserver that you use on your local lan, start using it and as you do, you'll have challenges you have to solve. Work down the list of exam objectives and using online guides or books to help you with the areas you have to train it, start using Linux and better RHEL. After a few months of using it every day, you can then do the training and if you find that you have trouble, practice more on your own.
Join community groups - local LUGs, mailing lists, go to IRC and hang out in the forums and channels around the distribution you're using. PARTICIPATE - don't just ask questions (but do ask) - answer too. Help out. Maybe you can help translating or writing documentation. Or you can file bugs and issues to get things fixed that aren't working. Build a network of people within the Open Source community who'll get to know you and your skills. It will come in handy when you start looking for a job and you'll also be able to help others out who are trying to learn.
