What this exam covers

The Claude Certified Developer – Foundations (exam code CCDV-F) certifies that you can build, integrate, and ship production-grade applications, agents, and workflows on Anthropic's Claude platform. The exam covers eight content domains, weighted by importance:

Applications and Integration (33.1%) — API mechanics, SDK usage, streaming, application design, and configuration management
Model Selection and Optimization (16.8%) — LLM fundamentals, model tiers (Opus/Sonnet/Haiku), token budgeting, and caching
Agents and Workflows (14.7%) — agent architecture, the Claude Agent SDK, custom agent loops, and agentic frameworks
Prompt and Context Engineering (11.0%) — prompt writing, context-window management, output validation
Tools and MCPs (10.6%) — function calling, MCP server development, and tool-type tradeoffs
Security and Safety (8.1%) — prompt injection defense, guardrails, hooks, and secrets management
Claude Code (3.1%) — Skills, Commands, CLAUDE.md, and settings.json
Eval, Testing, and Debugging (2.6%) — trace analysis, error handling, and structured-output validation

Recommended experience includes 1–5 years of software engineering, at least six months of hands-on work with Claude or a comparable LLM, proficiency in Python and/or TypeScript, and fluency with REST APIs and CLI tools. There are no mandatory prerequisites — the credential is awarded on exam performance alone. The exam consists of 53 multiple-choice and multiple-response items, has a 120-minute time limit, and requires a scaled score of 720 (on a 100–1,000 scale) to pass. It is delivered via Pearson VUE, either online-proctored or at a test center, and the credential is valid for 12 months.
