Frequently asked questions

How is MLA-C01 different from the Machine Learning Specialty?

MLA-C01 is the engineering half: getting data ready, training with SageMaker, deploying endpoints and keeping them monitored and secured. MLS-C01 goes deeper on modelling theory and algorithm selection. Build first, theorize second.

Does it use new question formats?

Yes. AWS introduced ordering, matching and case study item types with this exam alongside standard multiple choice, so practice for reading a scenario once and answering several linked questions about it.

Is this exam being updated?

AWS has announced an update in progress. Check the official exam page for the current version and its exam guide before booking, and treat any prep material against the version it names.
