Why can't I get a certification as a customer?

Hello!  I'm curious as to why certain exams/certifications are not available to customers.  For example I just took the VNX Performance Workshop which is an expert level class.  Because I am not a partner or EMC employee, I'm told I can't get certified at a VNX expert level.  I don't understand why I can't.  Can someone explain why this is?  Thank you!!

Hello - anyone can sit for an EMC Proven Professional exam.  If you pass the exam and have met all of the certification requirements, you would earn this credential.

I was in this class also, and according to the education web site, EMCIE and EMCTA are partner-only.  Can you clarify?

Hi There,

VNX Solution Expert for IE (EMCIE) Track is available for the Customers.

In order to achieve EMCIEe VNX you will need to first pass

- ISMv2

- VNX Solution Specialist [E20-390] for IE so that you can appear VNX EMCIEe.

You can verify the Certification Track from: https://education.emc.com/cust/certification/framework/ie.aspx

If you have cleared the Specialist Level you should see in your PearsonVUE account as below:

@Fenglin Li & BrentV2 - when indicating that that the EMCIE and EMCTA tracks were available to partners only, your instructor was potentially referring to the availability of training. Again, the proctored exams are open to anyone and should you pass (and have met all other requirements), the certification will be earned.

The customer track for VNX can be found under Storage Administrator on the certification framework
