AWS Certified Machine Learning Engineer Associate (MLA-C02)
AWS ML Engineer exam prep
AWS is swapping this exam over: the MLA-C01 runs until September 28, 2026 and the MLA-C02 takes over from September 29. Registration for the C02 opened on September 1, so both are bookable now and your test date decides which you sit. Either way it is a SageMaker exam. Data pipelines, feature engineering, model training, endpoint deployment, monitoring for drift, plus the generative AI scope the C02 adds with Bedrock, RAG, and agentic workflows. Our 3,300-question bank covers both.

What the MLA-C02 looks like
Scored on a 1,000-point scale. You need 720 to pass, across four SageMaker-heavy domains.
Weighted to match the exam
Data preparation and model development carry the most weight, with monitoring and security close behind.
Everything in the app
Two question formats and an adaptive engine tuned to the AWS services this exam actually tests.
2,000 Multiple-Choice Questions
Heavy focus on SageMaker pipelines, training jobs, hyperparameter tuning, Glue ETL, feature stores, and model registry. Each explanation walks through the AWS-specific implementation, not just the ML concept.
1,300 Rapid-Fire Questions
True/false drills on instance types, data formats, built-in algorithms, deployment strategies, and CloudWatch metrics. The MLA-C02 has a lot of service-specific detail to memorize.
