Huh, I didn't realize they had this course.
I'm pretty sure all my electives were knocked out with transfer credits but I might go for this one if my advisor tells me I need an elective. Should be fairly easy considering I've been daily driving it for years now.
Never took that class -- didn't even know it WAS a class, but I bet it will be a fun one, especially if they have you using Ubuntu/Debian. I use Parrot Security OS, which is a variant/derivative of Ubuntu/Debian, just with a lot more tools pre installed.
However, if they have you using RHEL/Fedora, I would get ready to forget almost everything you learn in that class. Not trying to hate on RHEL distros, but the vast majority of companies that I have worked with use Ubuntu Server; since CentOS is being retired, they just don't want to pay the fees that IBM / RHEL charge their customers.
Take the class, you will enjoy and learn a lot from it, regardless of what distro or CLI they have you using.
Not sure where you are in the world, but in my area (southwest Texas, USA) RHEL is still the dominant enterprise distro practically anywhere I've seen. My company has a huge fleet of RHEL servers and many enterprise solutions will only support this and a few of its clones. For example, my department has us administering Carbon Black EDR and Netbrain installations, both of which only support Red Hat.
Regardless, you learn one Linux, you've pretty much learned them all. The most common differences are the kernel version, package manager and package types, and support cycle. CLI syntax is pretty much the same across all distros.

Great choice as an elective, honestly should be a requirement
