Certification & Partnerships
Every module maps directly to the current public CCAO-F exam blueprint, v1.0, effective July 2026. A typical self-paced video platform gives you recordings. A generic question bank gives you MCQs. Neither gets you a certified trainer, a working Claude Project you built yourself, two domain-scored mocks, or a hand-held walk through the real Pearson VUE registration. This program does.
Anthropic's official, proctored credential validating that you can apply Claude to real business workflows with minimal guidance, prompting, output evaluation, product and model selection, workflow design, configuration and responsible use. 60 questions, 120 minutes, pass at a scaled 720/1000.
The certification exam is administered independently by Anthropic through Pearson VUE; the exam fee ($99) is paid separately and is not included in program tuition. Registration currently runs through Anthropic's Partner Academy, we walk you through the official registration process step by step.
Platforms & exams covered







Curriculum
Eight live sessions across 4 weekends. Every module is mapped to an official exam domain and carries its real exam weight, so you never waste a weekend on something the exam barely tests. Output Evaluation alone is 21% of your score, and it gets the class time to match.

We open with how the exam actually works and the platform decisions that domain 3 tests, which Claude product feature and which model for which job.


Structured prompting drills on real workplace tasks, analysis, research, drafting and brainstorming each get their own strategy.


The single biggest exam domain, and the skill that separates professionals from casual users. You learn to catch what's wrong before it ships.


Hands-on lab: you build a working department assistant with instructions, knowledge sources and connectors, then keep it as a portfolio piece.


From single tasks to whole workflows: map a real process, redesign it around Claude, and present the ROI like a consultant would.


Scenario clinic on the judgment calls the exam loves: what you may upload, when to anonymize, when to escalate, and how policy applies.


Fix underperforming prompts and workflows, then sit your first full 60-question timed mock under real conditions.

Targeted revision driven by your Mock 1 report, a second full mock, and the exact registration, scheduling and exam-day process.

Claude Certified Associate – Foundations is Anthropic's official, proctored credential for professionals who use Claude as a productivity tool, operations, marketing, PM, education, communications and consulting roles. The exam is 60 questions in 120 minutes, delivered by Pearson VUE, and you pass at a scaled score of 720 out of 1000. This course prepares you for that exam, domain by domain.
No. The CCAO-F is explicitly not for developers, no software-development or API experience is needed, and there are no mandatory prerequisites for the exam. If you use Claude (or any AI chat tool) at work and can follow structured processes, you are ready for this cohort.
Most self-paced video platforms give you recordings, and question banks give you MCQs. This is a live cohort with certified trainers, blueprint-weighted modules, real hands-on labs, two full-length timed mocks with domain-wise score reports, and a walkthrough of the official Pearson VUE registration. You also build two real portfolio assets, a configured Claude Project and a workflow-redesign document, that self-paced videos never give you.
No. The certification exam is conducted separately by Anthropic through Pearson VUE and its fee of $99 is paid directly at registration. Anthropic currently runs certification registration through its Partner Academy, in the final week we walk you through the official registration and scheduling process step by step, plus exam-day rules and the retake policy.
You sit two full-length, timed mock exams that mirror the real format (multiple-choice and multiple-response, 120 minutes). After each one you get a domain-wise score report, exactly the way the real Pearson VUE score report breaks down your percent-correct by domain, so your final revision targets your actual weak areas.
Every session is recorded and you get lifetime access to the recordings, along with the lab files, question bank and community. You can catch up any time and still join the next weekend live.
The next live batch starts Sat 28 Nov, and enrolment closes Fri 27 Nov. Classes run live on Saturday and Sunday, 8–11 PM IST.
