VCP6-DCV certification path

[alex_vsphere]

Hi,

I apologies if i post this in the wrong forum. Does anyone know what is the VCP6-DCV certification path? Are there some other exams which should be taken in advanced? I have taken the course Whats New vSphere 6. But my certification expired.

Thank you!

if your Expired VCP was VCP5-DCV and this was done after taking vSphere 5, ICM course, then go for following exams, because in this case you are suitable for New Candidate, Path 2

1) vSphere 6 Foundations Exam

2) VMware Certified Professional 6 – Data Center Virtualization Exam

but if your Expired VCP was older version or it was VCP5-DCV upgraded from your VCP4 certification then you got attend one of the following course and take above both the exams.

Hi,

I had VCP 4 and afterwards i took the Whats New for vSphere 5. Then took VCP 5 and certification expired. Now I took Whats New in vSphere 6. So if I understand you correctly i have to take the second option you have presented?

Thanks!

in that case, yes, it's the second Option which is suitable for you.

I would still recommend, take an opinion from certification@vmware.com, just in case if there's something that I am missing here.
