VMware offers world-class certifications designed to validate and recognize IT professionals with the technical capabilities and real-world experience needed to effectively install, manage, deploy and support VMware products and solutions. VMware certifications are available in two areas of virtualization: Datacenter and Desktop. Each specialty is broken down into three distinct certification levels reflective of skill and competency level.

The VCP510 exam consists of 85 questions and a short pre-exam survey consisting of 8 questions.
The passing score for this exam is 300, using a scaled scoring method. The scale is from 100-500. Scaled scores are calculated using a mathematical formula that considers a variety of factors, including the number and type of exam questions included in a specific version of the exam. Because this combination may vary in different versions of the same examination, scaled scores provide a fair score for each individual based on the version of the exam taken.
