A practical guide to CLF-C02, including foundational certification purpose, 90-minute Pearson VUE delivery, 65-question format, 700 passing score, target candidate profile, and the four official exam domains.
CLF-C02 measures broad AWS Cloud literacy rather than hands-on architecture or development depth. Preparation should focus on cloud value, shared responsibility, security, core services, billing, pricing, support, and common AWS use cases.
Use these points before building an AWS Cloud Practitioner study plan.
The current AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam is CLF-C02.
AWS lists CLF-C02 as a Foundational exam with a 90-minute appointment.
The exam has 65 total questions: 50 scored and 15 unscored questions that are not identified during testing.
AWS uses multiple-choice and multiple-response questions, with no partial credit for multi-response items.
AWS reports scores from 100 to 1000, with 700 as the minimum passing score for CLF-C02.
Cloud Concepts is 24%, Security and Compliance 30%, Cloud Technology and Services 34%, and Billing, Pricing, and Support 12%.
CLF-C02 is designed to validate overall AWS Cloud knowledge independent of a specific job role. It does not require candidates to write code, design full architectures, troubleshoot deployments, or perform load testing.
The largest domain is Cloud Technology and Services at 34%, followed by Security and Compliance at 30%, Cloud Concepts at 24%, and Billing, Pricing, and Support at 12%. Study time should follow that distribution.
Candidates should know what common AWS services do, when they are used, how the shared responsibility model works, where security and compliance responsibilities sit, and how support and pricing models affect decisions.
Before test day, confirm AWS Certification account access, appointment details, ID requirements, online proctoring or test center rules, system checks, and pacing for 65 questions in 90 minutes.

AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) is the Foundational AWS Certification for candidates who can demonstrate overall knowledge of the AWS Cloud independent of a specific job role. AWS lists CLF-C02 as a 90-minute exam with 65 total multiple-choice or multiple-response questions, including 50 scored questions and 15 unscored questions that are not identified on the exam. The score range is 100-1000, with 700 as the minimum passing score. AWS describes the target candidate as having up to six months of exposure to AWS Cloud design, implementation, or operations, and the guide keeps coding, architecture design, troubleshooting, implementation, and load testing out of scope. The current domains are Cloud Concepts (24%), Security and Compliance (30%), Cloud Technology and Services (34%), and Billing, Pricing, and Support (12%). Candidates should study shared responsibility, Well-Architected basics, security best practices, core services, cost concepts, support plans, and common use cases.
The current exam code is CLF-C02 for AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner.
AWS lists CLF-C02 as a 90-minute exam with 65 total multiple-choice or multiple-response questions.
AWS says 50 questions are scored and 15 are unscored; unscored questions are not identified during the exam.
AWS reports CLF-C02 scores on a 100 to 1000 scale, with 700 as the minimum passing score.
The four domains are Cloud Concepts, Security and Compliance, Cloud Technology and Services, and Billing, Pricing, and Support.
Create a checklist for cloud value, AWS global infrastructure, security and compliance, IAM, core services, billing, pricing, support, and migration basics.
Group compute, storage, database, networking, analytics, migration, AI/ML, management, and security services by use case rather than memorizing lists.
Drill pricing models, cost tools, billing dashboards, Trusted Advisor, support plans, and common cost optimization concepts.
Verify AWS Certification account access, Pearson VUE appointment, ID, online proctoring or test center requirements, and pacing before exam day.
Use the guide to self-serve, or talk to a coordinator if you need help mapping timelines, official requirements, or troubleshooting day-of logistics.
