I have recently been thinking about what technical certification
I should do next. It needs to be something that will enhance my IT career, as
well as provide me something new to learn.
At work we are in the process of deploying a Nutanix
Hyper-converged platform, so I thought that it would be a good chance for me to
gain new skills on this platform as well as looking into any associated
certifications that I could look into gaining along the way.
Nutanix has several technical professional certifications
that individuals can gain to prove their skills:-
NPP – Nutanix Platform Professional Certification “confirms
your ability to install, configure, and manage the Nutanix environment”
NSS – Nutanix Support Specialist Certification “verifies
the skills necessary to provide Level 1& 2 support for a Nutanix cluster”
NPX – Nutanix Platform Expert Certification “peer-vetted,
hypervisor agnostic certification designed for veteran solution engineers,
consultants, and architects”
You can find out more about each of these certification as
well as the three sales related certifications on the Nutanix
website.
In my case I have decided to start with the NPP
certification. To get started with this you need to create an account at
my.nutanix.com and then email education@nutanix.com
to request access to the free online training. This will then get you access to
the Nutanix ECP Administration (5.0) course along with many other Nutanix
educational resources.
The nice thing about the training and the exam is that
Nutanix have made all of this available for free!
Thank you Nutanix!
I will post more about this as I progress through my
training to the exam.
