Who this certification is for:

AWS recommends 2 or more years of experience building production-grade applications on AWS or with open-source technologies, general AI/ML or data engineering experience, and 1 year of hands-on experience implementing generative AI solutions. There is no certification prerequisite, though AWS suggests candidates may benefit from first holding AWS Certified AI Practitioner, AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate, AWS Certified Machine Learning Engineer - Associate, or AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate.

There is no formal enrollment prerequisite, though AWS designs this exam for practitioners already building production GenAI workloads on AWS rather than newcomers to the platform. Model development and training, advanced ML techniques, and data engineering/feature engineering are explicitly listed as out of scope for the target candidate. AIP-C01 briefly ran as a beta exam (beta concluded March 2026) before this current Version 1.0 general-availability release.
