Over the past few months, I've been putting together a design and application for the VCDX. I've been wanting to defend before they retire version 4 of the certification. I was selected to defend last week at VMware Partner Exchange and am happy to report I was successful. Since I have already passed VCAP5-DCD, this effectively grants me two VCDX certifications for the price of one. I've written a blog post giving a bit more information and some tips for anyone who is looking at the certification. 2 Hours, 2 VCDX’s (VCDX Experience and Tips)
CERTS: VCDX #110 / VCAP-DCA #500 (v5 & 4) / VCAP-DCD #10(v5 & 4) / VCP 5 & 4 / EMCISA / MCSE 2003 / MCTS: Vista / CCNA / CCENT / Security+ / Network+ / Project+ / CIW Database Design Specialist, Professional, Associate

Congratulations. I've always wondered why you don't have a VCDX.2018 Certification Goals: Maybe VMware Sales Cert

Congrats! Does this make you VCDX #2 in VA, or is there someone else besides Harley Stagner as this point?
Either way, kudos!"Start by doing what is necessary, then do what is possible; suddenly, you are doing the impossible." - St. Francis of Assisi -

O yes he has, so let's say that Brent is TE's first actively-posting VCDX, shall we?!
