VCAP6-DCV Design certification validates your ability to design and integrate VMware V6 infrastructure solutions in multi-site virtualized environments for large enterprises. This industry-recognized certification improves your credibility among your peers and proves that you have a deep understanding of data center design principles and methodologies.
If I earn VCAP6-DCV Design certification and don’t already have VCP6-DCV, will I receive it as well?
No. Please see this blog post for an explanation of this policy.
The VCIX6-DCV is awarded once a candidate holds both VCAP6 exams. If you hold the VCAP6-DCV Design certification, you need only earn the VCAP6-DCV Deploy certification to be awarded the VCIX6-DCV.
However, if you currently hold a previous version of the VCAP, you may upgrade to VCIX6-DCV. See your alternatives here.
