Hi All,
I am not sure is this right place to ask this question so please forgive me. I just want to know when vSphere 4 certification end date and when vSphere 5 certification going to come ? because i am planing for exam so just want to know.
-S
I am currently getting ready to take my VCP 4 exam, and I'm just curious as to when the VCP 410 exam will no longer be available to take. I'd hate to have to take the version 5 class just cause I missed the cutoff date or something.
According to the link above, it looks like the 410 exam can be taken until Feb 29th of 2012.
Did I read that correctly?
I may be a bit paranoid... :smileysilly:

NO... the link just say that if you are already a VCP4 you can take the VCP5 exam without course.
When the VCP4 exam will be retired is not there.
We must wait to see when it will published in the VCP4 web page.
IMHO... take the VCP4 exam as soon is possible

Retirement of the VCP4 exam has not been announced, as per Andre's reply the Feb 29th date is for existing VCP4 holders to be able to get VCP5 just by passing the VCP5 exam with no formal training requirement.

Will prepare for it before this period over as I don't want to pay 1500$$ for the What's New Course

It will be available for download in August - this was just the annoncement - :smileyconfused:
Thanks weinstein,
Just i seen it and Registered for Download.
And maybe we will see a version 4.2... who knows ? :smileyconfused:
Last class i took was v 3.5 can i still take a test without having to take a class?
If you are a VCP 4 then you will have to the end of February 2012 to take the exam with out having to attend a class - after the end of February you will need to attend the What's New Class before you can become a VCP5
If you are a VCP 3 or not at all than you will have take a class on vSphere 5
Check out - http://mylearn.vmware.com/mgrReg/plan.cfm?plan=12457&ui=www_cert
Im neither never finished taking the 3.5 test just took the class can i still take the 4 test then upgrade to 5 later?
Without being a VCP3, I am afraid you will have to take one of the vSphere 4 required classes and pass the VCP4 exam -

I agree. I doubt we'll see any VCP5 exam until Q4 2011 - that's not based on any insider knowledge, just my personal thoughts/opinion. There's plenty of life in VCP4 yet.

Given the amount of traffic on the vSphere 5 Licensing forum, I'd say companies are going to be sticking with vSphere 4 for as long as they can. Besides, I don't know about you guys, but I never implement a x.0 release of anything. I'll probably wait until 5.1 or 5.5 go live before we make any changes.
Well, getting as certification as early as possible give you additional advantages.
I found on Vmware website ,it shows there is no additional course required if you already VCP 4 till Feb 29 2012
Suggesting go for VCP4
I am fully agree with u certifications adds to your qualifications best way to learn more in limited time
It was tough studying for the VCP5 while teaching the VCP4 ICM class. Having the Cert exam release with the product was something new. Usually we have a little bit of breathing room to get certed. As an instructor we can’t teach until we cert and sit.
