Claude Certified Developer Exam: Passing Score, Format, and a Five-Step Study Plan

As of October 26, 2026, the program is limited to people at Claude Partner Network organizations and requires a company-domain email to register. The author reports scoring 896 against a passing line of 720, and explains retake waiting periods of 14, 30, and 90 days with a cap of four attempts in 12 months. The post closes with a five-step study plan built around the official prep course, mock tests, and error logs.
