VMware Partner University
VMware Technical Solutions Professional (VTSP)

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 condence 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 efective 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.
Upon attaining a VTSP accreditation, you will be able to:
Identify where and how specic products t into an overall
customer solution
Discuss and demonstrate the strengths and benets of key
technical features
Guide customers through product evaluation and selection
Apply knowledge to answer technical questions related to VMware
products and solutions
