Course Description
The CCAF Claude Certified Architect – Foundations certification is designed for developers, solution architects, and technical practitioners who want to validate their ability to design, deploy, and maintain production-grade applications using the Claude environment. Based on the official Anthropic study guide, this certification focuses on architecting agentic systems, integrating tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and making sound architectural tradeoffs in real-world production scenarios. Launched March 12, 2026 as Anthropic’s first official technical certification under the Claude Partner Network, it is intended for professionals who want to demonstrate architecture-level proficiency with Claude, not just everyday usage or prompt trivia.
Candidates preparing for this certification should be familiar with the Claude API, Claude Code, the Claude Agent SDK, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and are recommended to have at least 6 months of hands-on experience with the Claude API and Claude Code. They should understand how to design multi-agent orchestration patterns, configure tools and skills, manage long-running context, and apply structured output techniques in production environments. The exam covers five domains: Agentic Architecture & Orchestration (27%), Tool Design & MCP Integration (18%), Claude Code Configuration & Workflows (20%), Prompt Engineering & Structured Output (20%), and Context Management and Reliability (15%), including the CALM framework, prompt caching, conversation compaction, and token budget management. Every question is anchored to one of six realistic production scenarios from customer support agents to multi-agent research pipelines and CI/CD integrations and emphasizes responsible AI patterns, reliability engineering, and architectural judgment.
This FREE sampler of our CCAF Claude Certified Architect – Foundations Practice Exams features 20 expertly crafted, scenario-based questions, available in Timed Mode and Review Mode, to help assess understanding of agentic design, MCP integration, Claude Code workflows, prompt engineering, and context reliability.
To further strengthen exam preparation, consider upgrading to the premium version — CCAF Claude Certified Architect – Foundations Practice Exams — which includes 100+ realistic, exam-style questions, multiple training modes, detailed explanations, scenario-based production challenges, and BONUS FLASHCARDS designed to reinforce key Claude architectural patterns, MCP primitives, and agent orchestration principles, helping build the confidence needed to pass the certification exam.
