CCDV-F and CCAR-P have a fully transcribed blueprint and no practice items yet — domains, weights, published objectives, fees, scoring and policies are all current, but an original item bank has to be authored against them first. CCAO-F is transcribed in this repo but earns no Partner Network Services Track credit, so it is not prepared here.

How practice runs work

Drill
20 items · untimed · marked as you answer Each answer is graded immediately, with the correct option, the reason it is correct, and the named reasoning error behind the option you chose.
Simulation
60 items · 120 min · graded at the end The published exam form and time limit. Nothing is marked until you finish, then you get percent-correct by domain and by task statement, and an item-by-item review.

Every incorrect option in the bank is tagged with one of five recurring reasoning errors, so a run reports which one you make most often and can drill it. See the five categories — that taxonomy is ours, not Anthropic's.

Scoring and sourcing

Practice runs report percent-correct on original items. The passing score is scaled from a standard-setting study against the real item pool, so no practice percentage converts into it, and nothing here predicts a pass.

Every practice item is written against the objectives published in the exam guides. None is transcribed or reconstructed from a real exam, which would breach the certification agreement.

Exam guides are subject to change without notice. Re-verify each exam cycle; the guide is the authority over anything shown here.
