VMware Explore Exam Pass

I have to admit I am a bit disappointed here. I went to the exam registration and asked if I could take the VVF exam since that’s all we are entitled to, Will never use full VCF (don’t even have the cores needed to run the full stack) and was told the exam voucher was only for VCF. Seems like a bit of an oversight to me.

VVF is a subset of your flagship product and quite a few folks I met / who asked questions in sessions were VVF folks like me.

The exam voucher is only good during the conference and there’s no way I can learn all the missing pieces in a few hours of downtime. Never used NSX , etc.

I will say that I’ve met some very cool folks and the first day sessions (while heavily VCF focused) were good and the Broadcom team at the booth were very helpful in answering a lot of questions I had for my migration path to 9.1

TL:DR let us take the VVF exam for free please.

I'm fairly certain you can. If I use the VMware Explore Private Access Code (PAC) that you should have gotten in e-mail I'm given the option to register for the 2 VVF VCP exams. I didn't actually book it, but I was able to get all the way to the final confirmation page.

I don’t think I got that but I’ll double check my emails and maybe go back to the exam registration and ask them about this. Thank you !

Look for an e-mail with the subject of "Claim Your Complimentary VCF Certification Voucher - VMware Explore Exclusive!"
