Duncan over at Yellow-Bricks came across a response on the VMTN forums from Jon Hall, Technical Certification Developer at VMware, in regards to the VCDX Design Exam (step 3 of 4). Looks like the third portion of the highly anticipated VCDX Certification will be available around the end of February.  Hopefully when I get the results on the Enterprise Exam Tina will let me schedule this next portion.

As some of you know, last night I took the VCDX Enterprise Administration Exam.  So, let me paint you the picture of how it worked, first you need to read a sheet that shows the rules and regulations for the testing center. Then you need to show two forms of ID (Drivers License & Credit Card worked for me), then you give a digital signature and they take a photo. After your signed in you then remove all your belongings and put them in a locker (this includes cell phones, watches, wallets, money, cheat sheets or food), you can have nothing in your pocket except for your drivers license and the locker key.

Correction -> Even though I thought nominee’s have been submitted long before today, John Troyer in a comment below says that they are finally going to come in this evening. Then the selected panel goes into a room and votes, when the white smoke comes out of the chimney the vExperts have been selected.  Thanks John!

I finally received an email this afternoon from VMware in regards to the VCDX exam, it finally sounds like they’ve gotten it straightened out with Pearson VUE on how it will work.  Not to mention they are asking me to schedule a time to take the Exam!
