VCP-DCV 2023 Certification Learning Path

Hi All,

I am looking to obtain a VCP certification and I would like some clarification on the my learning path.

I do not hold any previous VMWare certifications.

Do I need to sit a foundation exam?

Do I need to attend a 5 day workshop or can I get the material on demand?

The company I work for is a partner so can I get access to on demand content?

 Failing that, Has anyone used sites like Udemy, CBT, linked learning etc

 

Thanks,

Steven

Certification path if you hold no VCP Certifications

3. (Required) Review and study the topics and objectives listed in the

Which VCP are you thinking of doing? There are many different ones across the various VMware technologies.

Each of the VCPs has 2 requirements - complete authorised training and pass a "professional" level exam - only once you have met both requirements would you be awarded the certification.

Many of the training courses are available in an on-demand version.

Sites such as Udemy do not have content which meets the training requirement for VCP.

Learn more about each of the VCPs by selecting the various technologies down the left of this page: https://www.vmware.com/learning/certification.html
