Hi;
I am wondering if VMware/PearonVue will enable a remote exam taking option for VCP/VCAP. I know for microsoft exam there is an option for that.
Thank You
Both VCP/VCAP exam you can book as per your schedule on Pearson and you can choose center which is near for you. You can not do exam remotely except VCA.. Also, For VCAP exam is lab based which is not available all Pearson center, only specific center where have the lab facility...
please mark helpful or correct if your query resolved.
Dude. I am asking VMware to enable the option to take the exam remotely. Pearson Vue offers Online-Proctored option. However this needs to be requested by VMware to enable. I know what the current options are.

HI,
No VMware exam can be performed online (from home) as permitted by Microsoft, except for the Foundation exam.
I simulated the planning of a VCAP exam (which I have to do shortly) and the online solution is not provided as I did for some Microsoft exams.

I am requesting that going forward VMware creates/enable an option so exam takers can take the VCP/VCAP remotely via Pearson OnVue online proctoring
You can’t performed VMware exam online as there we’re not have such policy in VMware to allow.
Nawal. I am not asking what the current policy is. I am asking VMware to Change/Update the current policy to allow for Pearson Onvue online proctoring for there VCP/VCAP exam,
Also keep in mind that most testing centers in north america is closed till end of march. and most likely in the foreseeable future. It is in VMware best interest to update/change there policy so the certification exam can be written using Pearson Cue onvue online proctoring.
I agree with you that it would be interesting, but this is not the right place to ask Vmware \ PearsonVue to include in the exam catalog the possibility of taking the online exam for VCA and VCAP.
I have emailed certifications@vmware.com (i am sure my email will go directly to trash).
What would the correct venue be, or who is the correct person to contact?
I shall follow this up internally.
Hopefully it was certification@vmware.com that you emailed (without the “s” on certification), and your email will raise a ticket that the team will be assigned to.
You did well, it's the correct email and I can assure you that it doesn't end up in the trash.

We are currently working on a remote solution, and hope to have it available very soon.
Thank You All. Look forward to updating my certifications, since can't do much else when being order to self-isolate.
AWS already announced that their exams became online proctored - a few days after these around-the-world lockdowns.
Microsoft has been doing it for ages.
VMware really has to raise their game too.
If you get a response from your email, please post here.
Thanks!

Its been a week, and there has been no update on the remote exam option.
1. Would you have a timeline on when this option will be enable
2. Would be nice if you discount all exams by 25% during the pandemic... (i am assuming you guys already will be, as a goodwill gesture).
Any update when the remote exam option will be available?
