Exam-aligned curriculum
Full coverage of all eight CCDV-F domains with weighted emphasis on Applications & Integration (33.1%) and Model Selection & Optimization.
Accumentum’s Claude Certified Developer – Foundations training prepares software engineers to integrate the Claude API, design agents and workflows, implement tools and MCP servers, manage models and cost, and ship reliable Claude-powered applications aligned to the official CCDV-F exam.
What you will gain
Foundations-level capability to build, integrate, and ship Claude applications and agents.
Master Claude API mechanics, streaming, caching, structured outputs, and application architecture.
Build agent loops, subagents, custom tools, and MCP servers with the Agent SDK.
Apply security, evaluation, debugging, model selection, and cost optimization practices.
This Accumentum course prepares software engineers and technical builders to design, implement, and ship production-grade applications and agents using the Claude API, Agent SDK, tools, MCP, and Claude Code.
The Claude Certified Developer – Foundations (CCDV-F) credential validates that you can build, integrate, and ship Claude-powered applications and agents. It is the builder track in Anthropic’s role-based certification program and is intended for engineers who work with the Claude API, SDKs, Agent SDK, tools, and Model Context Protocol.
Accumentum’s training maps directly to the official exam blueprint. You will practice Claude API mechanics, application design, agent architecture and construction, tool and MCP implementation, prompt and context engineering, model selection and cost management, security and safety patterns, Claude Code operation, and evaluation and debugging techniques that mirror real engineering work.
Whether you are integrating Claude into existing systems, building new agentic products, or preparing for the CCDV-F exam, this course develops the practical engineering judgment required of a Claude Certified Developer.
Full coverage of all eight CCDV-F domains with weighted emphasis on Applications & Integration (33.1%) and Model Selection & Optimization.
Hands-on exercises covering API integration, agent construction, tool design, MCP servers, and production patterns.
Pathway support that connects your engineering experience, target role, and funding options to the right Claude credential.
Training designed for engineers who ship—API design, configuration management, security, evals, and cost control.
Each module aligns to the CCDV-F content outline so you build exactly the skills measured on the proctored exam.
Engage in guided practice, code-oriented exercises, and realistic integration scenarios with experienced instructors.
Work through domain-weighted exercises that mirror the engineering judgment and tasks tested on the official exam.
Access structured materials, checklists, and review tools aligned to the eight CCDV-F domains.
Receive clear direction on exam format, scoring, registration, and how to approach the proctored assessment.
Accumentum’s training prepares you to demonstrate hands-on Claude development capability across all eight official domains, with special focus on the highest-weighted skills: Applications & Integration, Model Selection & Optimization, Agents & Workflows, and Tools & MCPs.

The Claude Certified Developer – Foundations exam (CCDV-F) is a 53-question, 120-minute proctored assessment. It validates that you can build, integrate, and ship production-grade Claude applications and agents using the Claude API, Agent SDK, tools, MCP, and Claude Code.
Passing the exam demonstrates that you can design applications, implement agents and workflows, select and optimize models, engineer prompts and context, implement tools and MCP servers, apply security practices, operate Claude Code, and debug and evaluate Claude systems.
Earning the Developer Foundations credential positions you as a capable Claude engineer ready to deliver production AI features with confidence and accountability.
