AWS Offering FREE Retakes for Practitioner Exams Now Through February 15, 2024

From now through February 15, 2024, both the AI Practitioner and Cloud Practitioner exams offer FREE retakes from now through February 15, 2024. I think that this is a great policy. Many of these test takers are new to cloud computing so they don’t know the exam format. You don’t want to discourage newbies. Allowing them free retake builds their confidence. Watch this video to learn more.

PS – Reminder that when you pass your AI Practitioner by February 15, 2024, you would also receive an early adopter badge. Here’s my AI Practitioner Medium blog post detailing my exam tips and experience.
