This change is the next step after certification renaming last year, removing product version from cert names.

For example, for valid VCP-DCV6 certificate holders there won't be any requirement to take the VMware training but just a recommendation to take one.
However, this might be not applicable for VCP-DCV5.X and older.
Removing recertification requirement definitely takes off a lot of pressure of being scared of losing certificate status validity in 2 years.
Best, sacredboy! -
