While you can take the class and the exam in any order, VMware recommends that you complete the course requirement prior to scheduling and taking the exam.
NOTE: By successfully taking and passing an exam, it does not imply that you have met the certification requirements in full.
To cancel or reschedule an exam:
You must cancel or reschedule your exam at least one business day prior to your exam appointment. Cancelling or rescheduling an exam LESS than 24 hours before your appointment will forfeit your exam fees. Exam fees are not refundable for no-shows, and vouchers cannot be replaced.

This also allows the certification holder to validate the currency of their certified knowledge. The new naming will eventually apply to all VMware certifications and select badges. For example:
The new naming gives certification holders predictability, relevancy and clarity.
