FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the VCAP-DCV Design 2024 have a year designator as its version?
Data Center Virtualization solutions are frequently updated. Having a year as its certification version allows VMware to better maintain the exam and training content, and provides certification candidates a way to communicate how current their skills are in relation to other certifications.
Are the courses listed required?
No, but we strongly recommend them because they are designed to prepare you for this exam.
Can I use my VCP-DCV 2024 as a pre-requisite for the VCAP-DCV Deploy 2024 certification?
Yes, but it is only required if your VCAP-DCV is 4 versions or older OR if you hold a VCAP in a different track that is 3 or less versions old.
Do I have to complete the requirements in the order listed?
No, however we strongly recommend that you do so. Also, please note that successfully registering to take an exam does not imply that you meet the certification requirements in full.
Is the VCAP-DCV Design exam proctored?
Yes. The VCAP-DCV Design exam is a lab-based, proctored exam, meaning a proctor monitors the exam to protect its integrity and validate that the candidate is answering questions independently.
Who should pursue VCAP-DCV Design?
VCAP-DCV Design is ideal for Data Center Virtualization architects and consultants who design vSphere solutions covering compute, storage, networking, security and disaster recovery.
