first VCP-DTM exam

Hello

I'm going to pass the VCP-DTM exam. This will be my firs exam of VMware. I have a few questions:
1. Which exam to choose 2V0-51.21 or 2V0-51.23. What are the differences between them.?
2. I had VMware Horizon: Deploy and Manage course (October 2023, one week ago). How long can I wait to pass the exam after training?
I am considering whether it is better to take the exam in November, December 2023 or January, February 2024?
When I pass the exam in November 2023, the title will be VCP 2023, and if in the new year, VCP 2024?
3. Where can I find sample questions so that I can prepare as best as possible?
English is a foreign language for me and I am afraid that I may not fully understand some of the questions, hence the need to practice with sample questions.
I would like prepare for the exam as best as possible

Only this exam is viable for VCP-DTM: https://www.vmware.com/learning/certification/vcp-dtm-exam-8-x.html

As per this page: https://www.vmware.com/learning/certification/vcp-dtm.html

There is no time limit between taking a course and passing an exam. For as long as the training you took counts towards the certification, you have that time to pass an exam.

You are correct that if you pass the exam in 2023 your VCP would be 2023 rather than if you waited til January.


The exam guide which you can get from the first link I posted lists the topics covered in the exam, I don’t know of any study guides or practice questions.

Depends on your current and target skill level, your objectives, and your budget.

Have a look at the requirements of any of the certifications here to get started: https://www.vmware.com/learning/certification.html

Some parts of the VMware Learning Portal are temporarily down which might be causing the error that you see.

I do not know how long this outage will be.
