VMware has released the VCP-Cloud exam. With the release of the VCP-Cloud exam there are now two ways to obtain the VCP-Cloud certification.

From the VMware Education and Certification blog:

Path 1
If you are already a VCP5-DV (VMware Certified Professional 5 – Datacenter Virtualization, formerly known as VCP5), all you need to do is pass the IaaS exam to earn your VCP-Cloud certification. There are two courses that can help you prepare for this exam, but they aren’t required:

• vCloud Director: Install, Configure, Manage
• vCenter Chargeback Fundamentals

Path 2
If you are just starting with VMware technologies or don’t have VCP5-DV certification, then you need to take two steps to earn your VCP-Cloud certification:

1. Attend one of these qualifying courses:
   • vCloud Director: Install, Configure, Manage
   • VMware vCloud: Deploy and Manage the VMware Cloud [V1.5]
2. Pass the VCP-Cloud exam
