Info about the upcoming VCP 4 certification

The winds are blowing with some information about the new VMware Certified Professional exam which covers the new “vSphere Suite” of products.
Basically, VMware is looking to increase the difficulty by a VERY large margin. Previously, the VCP 3 was taken in about an hour by most people. The beta testers in the VCP 4 program report that it’s going to be a FOUR HOUR test! The guide given to the beta testers which just outlines the areas to study is a whopping 16 pages long. Yikes! 
So, what does this mean to you?
If you’re wanting to get “VCP certified” (or have a boss who’s demanding it) and you want to take the easier test, I would strongly advise that you make it a high priority goal to take the VCP while it’s still in version 3. If you delay too long, you’ll be stuck taking the four hour long VCP 4 exam instead and who knows how many times you’ll have to attempt it before passing. Grab the VCP study kit today and get started before it’s too late!
