Free 70% discount voucher for VMware exam

It's time to give back to the wonderful TE community...

I discovered a discount voucher from the VMware course I've taken at UCSC almost a year.

The voucher gives 70% discount off the cost of the VMware VCP exam. It expires on June 23, 2012 - I don't know whether that's the deadline for using the voucher or exam date.

I am willing to give it away for free to any active member of TE who is planning to take a VCP exam. PM me if you want it. No newly registered members, please.

I wish I was prepared for that exam. Hopefully someone else can use it by then.

This is noble idea, hopefully whoever gets it will make the best use of it.

Can't you use it for VCP5?

The voucher can be used for VCP5 exam, I checked with VMware.

If you mean using it for myself, I had the intention to upgrade VCP4 to VCP5 originally, but since then dropped this plan for the following reasons:
a) got "VMware burn-out" while preparing for VCP4
b) not a big fan of chasing cert upgrades
c) haven't been dealing with virtualization much lately, spending 99% of time between Linux administration and Infosec work these days

So I verified this is the deadline for the actual exam.

Anyone feels like attempting this exam within the next 9 days for $67 instead of $225?

That's worth it just to see what is on the exam. Unfortunately, I will be testing for CCNA: Sec on the 22nd and proctoring a CISSP/ISC2 exam on the 23rd.

Could it be applied to VCP5-DT? If so I'd be willing.

Ah, if it was about a month out I would be all over it. I'm registered to take a VMware class starting on the 25th.

I have been tempted, can I please have the voucher. If I pass I'll put the voucher I'd get from UCSC on here at the end of my course.

PM'd you the voucher. Good luck!

Yeah, totally.
Good luck with your CCNA:Sec exam

If you have not used the voucher yet, I'd take it. I am taking a vcp class right now, scheduled to finish by end of the month but I want to take the exam by next week. I'd be happy to give you my voucher when I get it in the July.

Essendon

Sorry pachock, the voucher has been applied for my attempt. Are you taking the class at UCSC too?
