DellEMC VxRail training and certification options?

Hello,

I just wished to ask the experts what are Dell's offerings for VxRails training and certifications in 2019 and if anything relating to 4.7.* versions or if only on 4.5 still?

I do see the previous exams were dropped on Feb 1 2019, and now the DES-6321 exam which supports the new Specialist – Implementation Engineer, VxRail Appliance certification is available. Right now I am looking more at just training for deployments, versus an entire certification path.

https://education.dellemc.com/content/dam/dell-emc/documents/en-us/DES-6321_Specialist-Implementation_Engineer_VxRail_Appliance_Exam.pdf

Is this training still valid?
VxRail Appliance 4.5.2XX Installation and Implementation - On Demand Course

    Hello Matthew_LVS,

    Here is our advises...

    All the VxRail courses have been updated to 4.7.xxx.

    If you are still deploying v4.5.2XX then that ODC will be fine - VxRail Appliance 4.5.2XX Installation and Implementation - On Demand Course

    But if you are deploying v4.7.XXX then they should take the 4.7.XXX Versions of the course.

    The 4.7.XXX courses for deployment are:

    VxRail Appliance Installation and Implementation - Classroom ES514CPX00073

    VxRail Appliance Installation and Implementation - Virtual Classroom ES524CPX00074

    VxRail Appliance 4.7.XXX Installation and Implementation - On Demand Course ES533CPX00557

    If you have any questions please let us know.

    My apologies for delayed reply.

    Best,

    Naomi

    I am also facing the same issue, cannot locate this particular upgraded training "VxRail Appliance 4.7.XXX Installation and Implementation - On Demand Course" I did open a case with dell education team but no response from their side. 

     

    I have purchased the older version of the course "VxRail Appliance 4.5.2XX Installation and Implementation - On Demand Course". I wish can upgrade from this one without purchasing the new version.
