[suvankar83]

Hello All, I want to start my career in VMware. I am having good experience in MS AD support and i have fundamental knowledge in VMware Esxi. Which certification will enhanced my career?

I was thinking about VCA6-DCV. But is this exam expired? Can you suggest something?

All the VCA6 exams have now been combined into the VCA-DBT course.

the vca isn't required for further VMware related certification so if you want to do more I would recommend the vcf (foundation) exam that is required.

There is now just a single VCA: VMware Certified Associate - Digital Business Transformation Certification Page

If you want to go down the Data Center Virtualization path, the VCP6.5-DCV would be the certification to work towards: VMware Certified Professional 6.5 - Data Center Virtualization

what is the cost for this exam?

Which exam?

Follow the links to the pages for the exams, and you'll find the US Dollar price - the actual price you pay will depend on which country/currency your Pearson VUE account uses.
