Reading Time: < 1 minute Some hours ago I have received an e-mail from VMware Technical Certification Team to my VCDX5-DV certification (DV is the datacenter virtualization path) in my official transcript:: Your online transcripts will reflect your VMware Certified Design Expert 5 – Datacenter Virtualization status as soon as you: – Confirm your shipping address – Consent to transcript release – Accept the VMware Certification Agreement Note that finally the VCDX5-DV path has been published (and also the upgrade path has been confirmed).

Reading Time: 2 minutes Recently Microsoft has changed their beta exam policy (see the new official FAQ on beta tests) and now they are public and open to everyone who wished to take a beta exam: you must only look on the Prometric site for exam 71-XXX (instead of the usual 70-XXX). Previously beta test vouchers were handed out to SMEs, posted on industry blogs, or distributed at conferences. But this was usually a pain due to limited number of voucher and/or available seats. Actually there are some beta exams related to the new products and/or technologies: Now are […]
