Today I decided to give the VMware VCA exam a quick try on the datacenter virtualization track.
In case you missed my previous post on the availability on the VMware VCA exam tracks you can read all about how you register here.
Fellow blogger Frank Brix Pedersen has also blogged on VMware VCA exam.
I did not prepare in any way, but remember there is free self-paced elearning available which I would recommend watching.
However I wanted to see the format of the exam and working as a VMware Certified Instructor I did not expect to have trouble passing.
The exam contains 50 questions and you will have 90 minutes to answer them. If you are not a native english speaker you will recieve 30 minutes extra.
Time was definitely not an issue even though I took extra time to carefully read each question and every answer option.
There were no suprise questions, no trick questions. I did however see lots of questions on naming of various VMware products and why would you want to buy this product.
As promised here is a 50% exam voucher: VMRT9B503121
You can use this voucher while paying for the exam to recieve the exam at 50% discount.
Previously VMware also offered a launch discount of 50%, but this offer has expired:
Please leave a comment if you liked the FREE exam voucher and also feedback after taking the exam would be appreciated! 🙂

I passed. Thanks for the promo code!
Hello Sir, Congratulations !
I wanted to know is the FREE exam voucher applicable for VCA – Cloud Exam ?
Till what date is the voucher valid ?
Thanks Rasmus, just passed VCAC510: VCA-Cloud
I just saw this, and doing the course… how long is the voucher good for?
i pass it, but how i can get the certification ?
can i still use the voucher?
I passed thanks for the free voucher!!!
Apparently Global Knowledge provides a code as well. Can be used until January 31st but limited to one exam : http://www.globalknowledge.com/training/generic.asp?pageid=3596
This certification could be better a couple of different ways. Allowing one to take a test online is useless, who is to say that it was actually you who took the test, I feel this devalues it a great deal.
Second I think you should be able to use the VCA as a prereq for the VCP rather than forcing a moneygrab class upon you (not even Microsoft does that). I view the VCA as an entry level exam, but make it more valuable please…there’s not one legitimate use for the VCA as the way it stands right now.
Voucher worked, passed VCAD510 with a score of 460 too 🙂
can you sent me questions and answers of exam i can not find it
Thanks for the exam voucher. Waiting for my exam request to be processed and will update if I pass.
Thanks for the voucher ! I saw it a bit late.
The voucher is valid till 30 oktober (not valid on 31 oktober according to some sources), but I have a holiday on the 31st. If I register for the exam on the 30 of oktober, could I do the exam on 31 oktober or on the first of november (the exam has 2 day expiration time) ?

Hi, I successfully used the two codes to pass the VCA-Cloud exam. Now I try to register to VCA-DCV, but this time it is impossible to use them. I receive this message :
Discount validation failed.
Discount: Discount – VCA Exam Discount for Global Knowledge Customers
This discount cannot be used with a voucher. The order already contains a voucher.
This order contains a voucher (VMRT9B503121) that does not permit use with discounts.
Any idea. Why it was working yesterday an not anymore today .
I was able to use both codes yesterday to register and pass VCA-Cloud.
Today when trying to register VCA-DCV, I receive the following error :
Discount validation failed.

Getting the same error as everyone else when trying to combine the 2 vouchers. Have we all missed this chance then? 🙁
HI Rasmus,

Thanks in advance

Thank you for your interest in the new VMware Certified Associate program. Due to the overwhelming popularity of the program, the previously available 50% discount offer is no longer available, as of December 1, 2013.
Is it still possible to use 2 voucher to achieve 100% off?
