VMware Technical Solutions Professional (VTSP) 5 (revised)

VTSP 5 (revised) is a free online training program designed to provide Partners with fundamental technical knowledge about VMware vSphere 5. The goal is to help Partner Solutions Architects/ Solution Engineers/Pre-Sales Professionals develop the capabilities and gain the confidence to successfully guide customers through product evaluation, selection and installation based on their business requirements and/or existing IT environment. VMware is constantly looking to provide the latest content and training to partners in the most effective manner. To that end VMware launched a fully updated VTSP Foundation course in June 2013 that refocuses the accreditation on the design aspects of VMware vSphere and vCenter and less on the implementation aspects. The new course is updated to the current vSphere 5.1 content and provides more scenario based training, white boarding, and design considerations than previous versions of VTSP.
