If you need to check if someone is really certified by VMware, or you are a VCP and need to demonstrate you are certified, VMware have a very useful online tool for that. Just go to http://www.vmware.com/go/verifycert and enter the person certificate Verification Code.
If you are a VCP and don't know how to find your Verification Code, you can:
- Log in to MyLearn (http://www.vmware.com/education)
- Go to My Transcripts
- You now can see your eCertificate. Download it and the Verification Code will be on the down left corner.
WIth that, you can check if someone is really a VMware Certified (Advanced) Professional. Thanks to VMware Education team for that!
