Amazon Web Services (AWS)AWS Certified Data Engineer - Associate
The AWS Certified Data Engineer Associate validates that you can build and run data pipelines on AWS: ingesting and transforming data, choosing the right data stores, and keeping data secure, governed and of high quality. It is held by data engineers, analytics engineers and developers who put trusted data in the hands of analysts and applications.
The certification is earned through the DEA-C01 exam, which suits candidates with two to three years in data engineering or data architecture and at least a year of hands-on AWS work. Preparation draws on Building Modern Data Analytics Solutions on AWS and a dedicated DEA-C01 exam preparation session, combining guided practice with exam-style questions.
