Today VMware Education Services announced that they will allow a second shot for those who have failed their first attempt at the VCP 410 exam. This second shot is free but you will have to register before you attend your first exam.

It is a two part process:

  1. Enroll in the 2nd Shot Upgrade Program at the VMware Education Services website;
  2. Use the voucher number you receive from VMware to book your exam. This will entitle you to the free second shot  – in case you fail.

If you fail the exam that was scheduled with your unique voucher number, you may schedule a free retake by entering the promotion code: UPGRADE at the time of registration.

Important: This discount will only be valid on retakes of exams that were initially scheduled using your unique voucher number.

I passed the exam a few weeks ago and compared to my VCP310 exam I found the VCP410 exam to be quite difficult. It’s not an easy walk through exam so to register for a second shot is definitely a good idea, just in case.

Visit the Pearson VUE website or the VMware website for more information.
