VMware Certified Professional 6.5 - Data Center Virtualization (VCP6.5-DCV)

I have been working in virtualization infrastructure more than 10 yrs

so I am planning to take VCP6.5-DCV (2V0-622) exam without foundation exam.

I have completed the online course for VCP6.5 DCV also. Please advise, any impact or booking the exam without foundation exam.

You won't be awarded any certification til you have also passed the Foundations exam.

When you say you "completed the online course for VCP6.5 DCV", what training did you take?

OK, so you have completed 1 of the 3 required steps - pass the Foundations exam AND the VCP exam (in either order) to meet the other 2 requirements and achieve the certification.

I have completed my foundation vSphere 6.7 and  VCP VSphere 6.7 Exam 02/04/2020.

I have not seen any update on the VMware certification portal. Any idea, please

What I told you 9 months ago was true at the time - now we are into 2020 only vSphere 6.7 training meets the requirement for VCP-DCV 2020.

If you look at this page you'll see those 3 requirements (6.7 training and 2 x 6.7 exams), by passing those exams you have only met 2 of the 3.

As you completed a 6.5 class there is an option that allows you to take a shorter What's New class for 6.7 - you'll see that as path 1.1.5 on this page.
