Thanks - VCAP5-DCD looks good. One of my colleagues was send and tasked to write the VCDX5-DCV I believe and looking at the requirements is a helluva of a difference beast from the VCAP5-DCD.
Now to see if the work back agreement is worth the courses 
For anybody that passed the VCAP5-DCD is it possible to pure book learn it without taking the recommended courses?
