AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional (SAP-C02)
The exam is three hours of written scenarios with nothing hands-on in it. These labs are the other half: broken accounts to open in the console, work out what is wrong, and say so.
AWS retires SAP-C02 on November 16, 2026. SAP-C03 starts on November 17, 2026.

What practice looks like
Measured, then practiced, then measured again
A mock exam that is free
75 questions against a 75% pass mark, timed at 180 minutes in exam mode, free. Every question carries an explanation on your results, and study mode explains each answer as you pick it with Premium.
How the tests workLabs you work, not watch
A terminal and a simulated AWS console in the browser. Your commands build resources, and exam mode grades the state you leave behind.

PremiumA short reading across all 4 domains bands each one, and only the ones below the pass mark get work. The plan shrinks as domains close.

Hands-on
The labs in this certification
Each one is a scenario with a task and a grader. Nothing is provisioned on your side and nothing costs you anything to run.
