Why is only high-level feedback provided to unsuccessful candidates?
Candidates who achieve the VCDX certification can identify and clearly articulate requirements, map technical specifications to business requirements, and explain design rationale – both in writing and during the defense. Unsuccessful candidates’ notification letters includes a personalized summary of areas where they scored the lowest. These notifications are not a generic letter; such as might result from a multiple-choice exam with machine-generated score reports. VCDX applications and defenses are graded manually, several separate times, by a team of panelists. The resulting feedback is the culmination of all this manual evaluation and analysis of the candidate’s performance.
