AWS ML Engineer Associate Exam Prep FAQs

AWS Certification exams are delivered in two formats: online proctored or in-person at authorized testing centers through Pearson VUE or PSI. Candidates can choose the option that best fits their schedule and location. Online proctored exams require a secure environment, webcam, and reliable internet connection.

Most AWS exams are 130 minutes long (some foundational-level exams may be shorter). AWS does not publish exact passing scores as they vary slightly for each version of the exam. However, a scaled score of 700 out of 1000 is generally required to pass.

AWS Certifications validate your cloud expertise and are recognized globally by employers. They can help professionals advance their careers, improve job prospects, and qualify for roles involving cloud architecture, development, operations, and security. Certified individuals also gain access to the AWS Certified Global Community and exclusive digital badges.
