Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some effective guidance on how to prepare for the Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCP-MCI) exam in a practical and result-oriented way.

Rather than just reading through the course material, I’d like to know:

  • How and where to get the most hands-on experience (labs, simulations, or community editions).

  • The best structured learning flow that helped others grasp core concepts like storage, networking, and data protection.

  • Any tips or personal study methods that made a real difference during your NCP-MCI journey.

I’d love to hear from professionals who’ve already cleared the certification — especially on what worked best for you and what to avoid.

Thanks in advance for sharing your insights and helping fellow learners get practical with Nutanix! 🙌

Hello!

Hi,

How to prepare for the NCP exam really depends on your experience with Nutanix AOS.

Questions are straight forward and so is answering of them. Careful reading is a must.

 

If you have experience with the system, you can just focus on the topics you are not familiar with. For me that’s always the analysis part. I always mix up the entity and metric charts. You just don’t have Prism as a reference during the NCP exam.

 

Getting experience can be hard when you don’t have a cluster available. Demo.nutanix.com or CE can be helpful.

Just get the topics from the exam blueprint and start clicking. With no hands-on experience, the exam is very difficult to pass.

 

Very useful resource is the Nutanix Bible. The purpose of The Nutanix Cloud Bible is to provide in-depth technical information about the Nutanix platform architecture and how it can enable smooth operations across cloud, edge, and core environments. You can find this at https://www.nutanixbible.com.

 

And last but not leasta, you can use this forum to get some help. There is always someone online to help.

Hello,

The best reference for exam preparation is the official exam blueprint. NCP-MCI 6.10 Exam  Blueprint - Nutanix Certified Professional Multicloud Infrastructure (NCP-MCI) 6.10 Exam
