Applications of vExpert 2014 will be accepted untill March 6th Midnight PST. Applications received after March 6th will be roll into Q2 nomination & Voting Process. Got Shocked???.. Yes.There are new changes to vExpert Program

1. If you are a Current 2013 vExpert, Your 2014 application process has been shortened. Since you have proved yourself as a vExpert, you need to let them know the contributions since May 2013 vExpert announcement.
2. There will be quarterly nominations into 2014 vExpert program. Applications will be open year round at the end of each quarter. The voting process will begin for new vExperts from the previous quarter. So if you are not selected as vExpert 2014 right away, you will have change for quarterly voting and nominations.
As same as the last year, There are 3 different paths to prove yourself as vExpert.
 
Evangelist Path:
The Evangelist Path includes book authors, bloggers, tool builders, public speakers, VMTN contributors, and other IT professionals who share their knowledge and passion with others with the leverage of a personal public platform to reach many people. Employees of VMware can also apply via the Evangelist path. A VMware employee reference is recommended if your activities weren’t all in public or were in a language other than English.
Customer Path:
The Customer Path is for leaders from VMware customer organizations. They have been internal champions in their organizations, or worked with VMware to build success stories, act as customer references, given public interviews, spoken at conferences, or were VMUG leaders. A VMware employee reference is recommended if your activities weren’t all in public.
VPN (VMware Partner Network) Path:
The VPN Path is for employees of our partner companies who lead with passion and by example, who are committed to continuous learning through accreditations and certifications and to making their technical knowledge and expertise available to many. This can take shape of event participation, video, IP generation, as well as public speaking engagements. A VMware employee reference is required for VPN Path candidates.
