Most Popular VMware Certifications
2 coursesThe VMware paths for teams managing virtualized data centers and software-defined networking.
Certification architecture
Build VMware coverage across data center and network virtualization
Use VCP-DCV to validate vSphere and ESXi operations, and VCP-NV to validate NSX network virtualization. Together they map to the two VMware capability areas most infrastructure teams need.
1
Certification tier
Tier 1 — vSphere Operations
Give virtualization admins a shared baseline for deploying, configuring, and troubleshooting vSphere 8 environments.
VCP-DCV — Data Center Virtualization
1 courseVMware Certified Professional Data Center Virtualization for teams managing ESXi hosts, virtual machines, clusters, storage, and core vSphere operations.
2
Certification tier
Tier 2 — NSX Network Virtualization
Develop the network virtualization bench that can design and operate NSX logical switching, routing, and distributed firewall controls.
VCP-NV — Network Virtualization
1 courseVMware Certified Professional Network Virtualization for teams operating NSX, virtual networks, distributed firewalls, and software-defined data center connectivity.

Certification tier
Tier 3 — Hybrid Infrastructure Bench
For small VMware catalogs, the expert bench is built by pairing both available tracks: vSphere platform ownership plus NSX network/security ownership.
vSphere + NSX Hybrid Infrastructure
2 coursesA combined path for senior infrastructure engineers who need to reason across compute virtualization, storage, networking, and security controls.
Customer outcome
Make virtualization ownership visible
VMware training is easy to map to team ownership: one path for vSphere operations, one path for NSX network virtualization, and a combined path for senior hybrid-infrastructure engineers.
2 core tracks
Data center virtualization and network virtualization
Role-based paths
VMware Training by IT Job Role
Match VMware training to the actual roles your team holds. Each path bundles the right cert tracks plus the operational depth engineers need day-to-day.
VMware Training for Virtualization Administrators
1 courseFor admins deploying, configuring, and troubleshooting vSphere clusters, ESXi hosts, virtual machines, and storage networks.
VMware Training for Network Virtualization Engineers
1 courseFor engineers designing and operating NSX virtual networks, logical switching and routing, and distributed firewall policy.
VMware Training for Hybrid Infrastructure Teams
2 coursesFor infrastructure teams that need shared fluency across data-center virtualization and network virtualization.
Platform depth
Learn VMware Tools and Platforms
Platform-by-platform deep dives for the specificVMware tools your team operates.
Learn VMware vSphere
1 coursevSphere and ESXi operations for teams managing virtual machines, clusters, storage, and data-center virtualization.
Learn VMware NSX
1 courseNSX network virtualization for teams designing logical networks, distributed firewall policy, and software-defined connectivity.
Hands-on VMware practice
Human-led training is the point: engineers practice real skills with expert guidance, not just video playback.
Why CBT Nuggets
How CBT Nuggets is different for VMware teams
The platform features IT directors evaluating us against Pluralsight, Udemy Business, and LinkedIn Learning ask about most often.
Practitioner-led
VMware training your team learns from
Built and taught by engineers who have spent decades running production VMware infrastructure — not crowd-sourced contributors.

Team outcome
Faster ramp for new hires
Curated playlists and team assignments make onboarding repeatable instead of relying on ad hoc shadowing and tribal knowledge.
Best fit for: managers scaling a team, backfilling a role, or standardizing skills across distributed engineers.
