Successfully completed the professional certification with 912/1000. Thanks Jacob! One observation: the were four different question/answer formats in the exam. 1. Multiple choice [Select one answer from four options] 2. Multiple Answers [Select 2 options from 5] 3. Choose from a list [five scenarios/questions with 2/3 answers to pic from a list box - yes/no or choice 1, 2, 3] 4. Mapping 1 to 4 options in a sequence [the options were listed rather than allowing us to map, guess it's a limitation of the test UI from PearsonVue, found it more cognitively demanding and prone to miss due to poor usability than not knowing the concept/answer]

The full CCDV-F Masterclass is live, and you get the exclusive Skool Member pricing 🔥 👉 https://www.udemy.com/course/ccdv-f-exam-prep/?couponCode=SKOOLER (On 8/16, the SKOOLER coupon expires, at that point use the one below, a bit less discount.) https://www.udemy.com/course/ccdv-f-exam-prep/?couponCode=CURRENT_STUDENT As part of this community, your price is set to the lowest Udemy ever allows in your region. I won't quote it here, because it varies. Far below the public rate. Heads up, Udemy doesn't like these discounts, they force the code to only last five days. After that there is a less-awesome discount with the 'current_student' code. This is the credential for building on Claude, not just using it. CCDV-F is the Developer foundations cert, and the course is written for the engineers who ship the code: working with the Claude API and the Agent SDK, designing tool use and building MCP servers, standing up agents and multi-step workflows, and getting structured, reliable output back. You learn to engineer prompts for production reliability, manage the context window for cost and latency, evaluate and test what your agents actually do, isolate work with subagents, and handle the errors and edge cases that break real integrations. If CCAO-F is about mastering Claude.ai and the architect track is about designing Claude Code systems, CCDV-F is about building them with your own hands, and it is the skillset every developer on the team should have. This was a BEAST to build, so if you notice anything weird or off, please reach out and we'll fix it up right away. Kyle and I both feel like we need to sleep for three days after this monster build. Let's get you Developer certified. Another little prize, if you leave a review for the course and send us a screenshot here (in a DM), you're entered for a free premium membership for life. We're giving away 3 lifetime memberships after the course has been up for a week!

@Jacob Bushong, Good afternoon, I am preparing for my CCAR-F exam. It looks like I can't take the exam if my company is not a Anthropic partner. I think you mentioned in one of your posts that you were working on becoming a partner to help your students. Is that correct? Please let me know. Thanks!

All four Fast Track courses are up. These are for review before the exam, not standalone prep. Don't yell at me if you watch one of these on 2x speed in an hour and a half and then fail the exam 😁 If just CAN'T STAND to wait....or you want these review courses for your catalog anyway, pick them up here.

You've asked about the upcoming courses, so here is a quick update. We are just a few days away from the full release of the new Architect-Professional course, and I have to say...I think it's looking pretty good. But don't take my word for it. Here is a video from the collection, take a look and let me know what you think. Keep in mind, this video might change a bit in edit before final release. Some stats on the course: Slides - 1029 Lessons - 103 Length - 12-14 hours Quiz Questions - 196 Mispronunciations - At least 10 😁 Coughs Kyle had to edit out of video/audio - more than 50 Times Kyle told me to stop being a diva and just get the recording done - 3
