Don't Waste Time! Facts Until You Reach Your Amazon Certification
motivating than a deadline!) or cover the study material, do some practice tests, and make sure you score above the pass threshold before booking the exam. I personally prefer to cover most of the study material first and then book the exam few weeks in advance. To book an exam go to the AWS training and certification page and sign in with your Amazon (not AWS) account. You should sign in using your APN account if, like me, you work for a firm that is part of the AWS partner network. You are then either prompted to create an AWS certification account (if you don’t have one already), or redirected to your AWS certification account. If you take the exam in English and English is not your first language, you can request non-native speaker addition time: this adds 30 extra minutes to your exam so that you’ll have 210 minutes instead of 180 to complete it. To benefit from extra time you must request it via the Request Exam Accommodations button in your AWS certification account. Make sure to request it before you book the exam as it is not possible to add it afterwards. The approval of the exam accommodation is usually immediate. Note that the SA Pro exam can also be taken in French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Chinese, and Spanish. Before booking you can also check if you are entitled to a discount for the exam (which at the time of writing costs 300 US dollars). For example, if you passed an AWS certification within the last 12 months, you are entitled to a 50% discount on the exam price and you can claim this benefit via the Benefits tab: At a testing centre: you can find your nearest PSI test centre here and your nearest Pearson VUE test centre here. Make sure you check the current regulations as they can change due to the ongoing pandemic. I personally prefer to sit the exam at a test centre because I don’t have to worry about my

In addition, going to a test centre puts me in ’exam mode’ and focuses my attention on the exam without having external distractions. At home: since March 2020, AWS allows you to take all certification exams at home, with online proctoring. If you are interested in this option, read AWS’s own blog post 5 tips for a successful online-proctored AWS Certification exam which covers what you need in order to take the exam from the comfort of your home. In particular, pay attention to the system requirements for Pearson VUE and PSI and perform a system test with Pearson VUE or PSI. Note that you cannot take the exam on Linux, and cannot use a secondary monitor. Before the exam you need to install some software on your computer (using administrator privileges), which asks you to quit all your other programs and grant access to your webcam, microphone, and screen. Before starting the exam at home you are asked to photograph your identity document, your face, and your workspace from a few different angles, and the online proctor may ask you questions about your workspace. During the exam, your webcam and microphone must remain on all the time and you cannot leave the room nor let anyone in. Colleagues who took the exams with both testing providers tended to favour Pearson VUE as the exam experience was a bit smoother.
