Description

---

Become a Claude Certified Developer - the complete CCDV-F exam prep course with 5 full-length practice tests.
Anthropic's Claude Certified Developer - Foundations (CCDV-F) credential validates hands-on skill building with Claude: API mechanics, agentic workflows, Claude Code, prompt and context engineering, security, and tools/MCP servers. This course is a complete, structured prep path through every domain in Anthropic's official Exam Guide v1.0 - weighted exactly the same way the real exam weights them, so your study time goes where the exam actually rewards it, not where a random tutorial happens to focus.
Whether you're an AI engineer, a software developer moving into applied AI, or a Claude API user who wants a credential to back up your skills, this course takes you from the fundamentals of building with Claude to exam-day readiness.
What you'll learn

---

You'll work through all 8 domains and 25 sub-skills tested on the CCDV-F exam
Agents and Workflows - agent architecture, agent construction with Claude, and agentic design patterns
Applications and Integration (the largest domain on the exam) - Requirements

---

gathering, systems lifecycle, Claude API mechanics, software engineering foundations, application design, and configuration management
Claude Code - day-to-day operation and developer workflows
Eval, Testing, and Debugging - finding, diagnosing, and fixing errors in Claude-powered systems
Model Selection and Optimisation - LLM fundamentals, technical fundamentals, model trade-offs, and cost/token management
Prompt and Context Engineering - context design, prompting technique, and output handling
Security and Safety - AI application security, guardrails, Claude hooks, and identity/secrets/key management
Tools and MCPs - tool implementation, MCP server development, and agentic customisation
How the course is structured
Every domain is broken into lessons matched to its official exam weight, so a heavily-weighted domain like Applications and Integration gets proportionally more depth than a lightly-weighted one like Claude Code. Along the way you'll get
Practice questions in the same multiple-choice / multiple-response format used on the real exam
5 full-length timed practice tests built to the CCDV-F blueprint, so you can benchmark your readiness before exam day
Domain-by-domain breakdowns so you know exactly where you're strong and where you need more reps
Real, hands-on examples covering the Claude API, Claude Code, agent design, MCP servers, and prompt engineering - not just theory
Who this course is for

---

This course is for AI engineers and software developers who want to build real applications, agents, and workflows with Claude - and back that skill up with a recognized credential. It's a strong fit if you're already writing code professionally (roughly 1-5 years of experience) and have some hands-on exposure to Claude or a comparable LLM, but want a structured path that covers every exam domain rather than scattered tutorials. It's also well suited to developers newer to Claude specifically who are comfortable with Python or TypeScript and want a guided, exam-focused way to get up to speed on the Claude API, Claude Code, agentic patterns, and MCP servers. This course is not intended for complete programming beginners - some professional software development background will help you get the most out of it.
