Before booking

Read the current guide

Use Anthropic’s current objectives as the source of truth. We do not reproduce an unverified blueprint.

Credential ownership

Issued to you by Anthropic

The credential belongs to the individual. If you certify through a partner domain, it also contributes to that domain’s partner record.

Preparation and access

Know what we provide — and what we don’t.

Academy Access provides two months of Anthropic Partner Academy access across all four tracks through our partner organisation. The exam is still booked with, paid to, and administered by Anthropic directly. Our preparation is independent and does not guarantee a passing result.
