A credential is a logo badge and title that you may use on your business cards and other professional collateral to designate yourself as AWS Certified.

AWS Certifications enable individuals to gain recognition for their knowledge and skills in working with AWS services. Additionally, preparing for certification requirements provides an opportunity to expand your expertise working with AWS services.

AWS Certification passing scores are set by using statistical analysis and are subject to change. AWS does not publish exam passing scores because exam questions and passing scores are subject to change without notice.

• You must wait 30 days from the day you fail to take the exam again. 
• You can take the exam up to three times in one year from the date of your first attempt.

All customers and partners will be required to update their certification (or “recertify”) every two (2) years.
