A current status guide for DAS-C01, including the April 2024 retirement, final retake and prep-material access date, recertification limits, badge-display note, historical exam scope, and the current AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate path.
DAS-C01 should no longer be treated as an active exam. Candidates planning a current AWS data credential should review DEA-C01, while existing DAS badge holders should track badge validity and future recertification options through AWS Certification.
Use these points before planning around the retired AWS Data Analytics Specialty exam.
AWS Certified Data Analytics - Specialty (DAS-C01) is retired and is no longer an active AWS Certification exam.
AWS identified April 8, 2024 as the final date to retake Data Analytics - Specialty before retirement and the final access date for related Skill Builder prep materials.
Candidates cannot newly schedule DAS-C01 after retirement through AWS Certification or Pearson VUE.
AWS said candidates would not be able to recertify on the retired exam after the retirement date.
AWS said existing certification holders could continue to display their Credly digital badge while it remains valid.
AWS launched AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate (DEA-C01) for candidates focused on data pipelines, stores, operations, and governance.
AWS announced the retirement of Data Analytics - Specialty alongside Database - Specialty and SAP on AWS - Specialty. For DAS-C01, April 8, 2024 was the final date AWS named for retakes and related Skill Builder prep materials.
Because the exam is retired, candidates should not build a study plan around scheduling DAS-C01. Any page or vendor still presenting it as active should be checked against AWS Certification before relying on it.
AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate validates pipeline implementation, data store selection, pipeline operations, monitoring, optimization, and data security/governance. It is the practical current AWS path for data engineering candidates.
DAS-C01 historically covered collection, storage and data management, processing, analysis and visualization, and security. That history can help existing badge holders explain the credential, but it does not make the retired exam schedulable.

This page should be used as a retirement status guide and migration note, not as an active exam registration guide.

Only for historical understanding. For a current AWS credential, use the active DEA-C01 exam guide and AWS Skill Builder resources.
Sign in to AWS Certification to confirm whether an existing Data Analytics - Specialty badge is still valid and when it expires.
Do not rely on third-party pages that imply DAS-C01 can still be scheduled; verify all current availability directly with AWS Certification.
Compare your data analytics background to DEA-C01 domains: data ingestion and transformation, data store management, data operations and support, and data security and governance.
Use current AWS Skill Builder and exam guide materials for DEA-C01 rather than retired DAS-C01 prep courses or old practice exams.
Use the guide to self-serve, or talk to a coordinator if you need help mapping timelines, official requirements, or troubleshooting day-of logistics.
