Thank you so much @Karlie Beil for sharing this useful information !!

Hi @Karlie Beil , I am already Nutanix certified for both NCA & NCP 5.15 Version. can I plan for NCM certification exam with existing NCP 5.15 or I need to first upgrade to NCP V6.X and then plan for NCM.

Please advise on this, thanks !

@SHAILENDRA that depends on your work environment. If you’re currently running on v5, then v6 might not be the best option for you. However, if you’re running on v6 then it would be a good idea to upgrade. When NCM-MCI v6.5 is rolled out, there will be a period of them when the v5 version is still available. Hope this helps! 😀

 

Unfortunately, voucher is not working for NCP-MCI.

@AlanS you can expect to receive the results around mid-November. 

Impatiently waiting. :)

Nutanix Certified Professional - Multicloud Infrastructure (NCP-MCI) 6.5  free voucher ?

 

Hi Everyone,

 

Please guide If I have pass NCA 5.20 exam will it be upgrade NCA 6.5 after 5.20 Expired or I need to take 6.5 exam again???

 

Please suggest  

Hi @Waseem Anwar, NCA 5 and NCA 6 are two different certifications. If you want to show you’re certified on the latest Nutanix technology, then you should consider getting the V6 certification. However if your experience is more with the 5.20 software, you may be more comfortable getting that version of the certification.

Hi Karlie,

 

Thanks for your reply But NCA 5.20 will expire in Feb 2023 after that what will happen that time?

Userlevel 6

@Waseem Anwar once it retires it will no longer be offered and no new NCA 5 certifications will be rewarded, only NCA 6. 

Hi, 

 

Been trying to schedule the exam but get a “Account Incomplete” message, account has been created a while back and opened a support case some time ago and not getting any feedback. Can this be resolved before the deadline expires on the vouchers please!

 

Kind regards,
