I took my VCP exam yesterday and passed it with 467 [out of 500] marks and I am writing to thank you for all your help and support on achieving my VCP. (Dilan Siriwardena – November 2012)
Dedicated Student Equipment Pods
To give you the best possible exposure to VMware technologies, each student will receive a pod consisting of:
- 2 x ESXi 5.1 hypervisor
- 1 x SAN/NAS server
- 1 x Windows 2008 Domain Controller
- 1 x vCenter Server Appliance 5.1
- 1 x vCenter 5.1 (Windows)/Update Manager
This self-contained pod of equipment is yours for the duration of the course. Apart from the set labs, you are free to experiment with whatever feature you wish. We also give you a hand with building your own home environment, which can be daunting for first-timers.
We understand that labs can be very time-consuming so we do not abruptly end classes according to the schedules. Your instructor will typically be around 30 minutes before classes begin and up to an hour afterwards.
