Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is this site affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic?

No. It is an independent study site written by a community member who sat the exams. Anthropic has not reviewed, endorsed or approved any of it. For anything official (booking, rules, results, recertification) go to Anthropic's certification programme and its exam guides.

Is the completion certificate an official credential?

No. It records that you finished this free practice path and how you scored on its practice mock exam. It is not an Anthropic certification, not a score on the real exam and not a prediction that you will pass.

Are these real exam questions?

No. Every practice question, flashcard and worked example is written for this project, and no item from any real exam is reproduced. The study notes are organised by the skills and weights Anthropic publishes in its exam guides, because that is what the exam is marked against.

How many Claude certifications are there, and which can I study for here?

Four: Associate (CCAO-F), Developer (CCDV-F), Architect Foundations (CCAR-F) and Architect Professional (CCAR-P). CCAO-F and CCDV-F have full material here today. CCAR-F and CCAR-P are being written and will follow the same journey.

How do I choose the right certification?

CCAO-F is for people who use Claude at work without writing code: prompting, checking output, choosing features, governance. CCDV-F is for developers who build with the API, agents, tools and MCP, and Claude Code. The architect tracks are for people who design Claude-powered systems.

How current is the material?

The notes follow the published exam guides and show the date product facts were last checked. Model names, limits and prices change between releases, so confirm them at docs.claude.com before you sit the exam. When a guide changes, the notes are updated to match.

Is it really free? Do I need an account?

Yes, and no. There is no paywall, no sign-up and no tracking. Your progress (lessons ticked, flashcards known, mock scores) is kept in your own browser only. The only ask is an optional coffee.

How do I book the real exam?

Through Anthropic's certification programme, which publishes the exam guide, fees and policies for each certification. Read the official guide for your exam before booking.

Can I install it as an app?

Yes, free. Use Install app in the menu at the top. On Android or in Chrome or Edge on a computer, choose Install. On iPhone or iPad, open the site in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It opens full screen from its own icon, and your progress stays on your device as before.

I found a mistake. How do I report it?

Please open an issue on GitHub. Corrections are welcome, especially where the official documentation has moved on.

Found this useful?

Everything here is free and stays free. A coffee keeps the CCAR-F and CCAR-P tracks coming.
