Updated exams for VCAP-DTM Design 2022 and VCAP-DTM Deploy 2022?

The exams for VCAP-DTM Design 2022 and VCAP-DTM Deploy 2022 seem to be stuck in the dark ages of Horizon 7!

Can anyone provide some info about when we can expect the exams to be aligned with the products covered in the Horizon 8 courses please?

VCAP-DTM Design 2022 is aligned to Horizon 7.2, the course is no longer available and the suggested training is all for Horizon 8.

VCAP-DTM Deploy is aligned to Horizon 7.x and the suggested training is all for Horizon 8.

I work for a VMware Partner with multiple MSCs and am keen to become VCIX-DTM 2022.

Many thanks,
Greg

Greg, I hear you. While I don't have specific information on our development roadmap, we are very aware they need the 8.x updates and working towards that end.

@KarlChilds, thanks for hearing me 😉 Unfortunately my employer is not hearing me and wants me to pass the VCAP-DTM Design 2022. Alas the design course for version 7 has been removed. Might VMware consider bringing the course back online until the exam has been updated version to 8.x?

While not in my purview, let me ask the question internally. Not sure of demand or lab configurations, that may be an inhibitor. But let's find out!

Hi @KarlChilds,

Happy Friday! 

Any news for us on the updated exams for VCAP-DTM Design 2023 and VCAP-DTM Deploy 2023 please?

It definitely feels like these exams and courses are not getting the attention they deserve. If I was starting my Horizon journey and looked at the current version of Horizon then looked at the version the exam uses I would be running a mile! 

3V0-752 refers to VMware Horizon 7.2, https://www.vmware.com/learning/certification/vcap7-dtm-design-exam.html
3V0-51.20N refers to Horizon 7.X, https://www.vmware.com/learning/certification/vcap-dtm-deploy-7-exam.html 

Sorry to beat you up on a Friday but I am getting beaten up by my employer!

Cheers,
Greg

I know there are various new VCAP exams due to launch in the next month or so - I can't say exactly which ones and when.

Hi Greg, apologies, I haven't received any word on training being renewed for availability. I'll follow up again.
