If you sit and manage to pass the following exams:
VMware vSphere 6.7 Foundations
Professional VMware vSphere 6.7 (2V0-21.19)
Can you later on take a [V7] course (See section 2) to achieve the certification? (or vice-versa of course)
VMware Certified Professional - Data Center Virtualization 2020 (VCP-DCV 2020)
Thanks
