Just like the Muppets took Manhattan – the VMware Learning team is ready to take Barcelona! We are excited to bring you great content, special face-to-face opportunities, and recognize you and all your hard work. Below is a highlight of some of the events and activities that are being hosted by the VMware Learning team at VMware Explore Barcelona, November 6 -9, 2023.
VMware Learning-led sessions are here for you!
Some of your favorite VMware Certified Instructors will be live in person and waiting for you! The VMware Learning team has prepared over a dozen technical sessions covering a wide range of topics including Security, Multi-cloud, and Networking. And yes, those do include the always popular Exam Prep sessions, hosted on Monday in the Customer Experience and Success Theater, located in The Hub. Click the link below to add these sessions to your agenda – they are filling up quickly!
Career Mapping Sessions
Are you feeling stuck in your career? Looking to have more impact in your organization? Do you want to have a seat at the IT strategy table?
Join our career mapping session at VMware Explore. Hosted outside of the Customer Experience and Success Theater, in The Hub, our Technical Learning Engineers will help you reevaluate your goals, current IT trajectory, and advise you on how to get to the next level! The best thing you can do sometimes is talk to someone who has been there before. You can ask them what steps you need to take to advance your career.
These 45-minute sessions are designed as a 1:1 session designed to help you identify gaps in your skills and knowledge and create a strategy to fill them. Come ready to discuss where you are now and where you want to go. As a thank you for your time, you will receive a VMware Learning branded Bluetooth speaker.
Please register for your 1:1. Spaces are limited and we will only be able to accommodate a small number of walk-ups.
