Real-time and practical knowledge is a must in your preparation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The guided labs help you build expertise in one concept of the exam with hands-on experience. Try the hands-on challenge labs, where you are given a scenario and a problem to solve. Lab challenges are intended to assess your knowledge and practical skills, in contrast to guided lab types, which concentrate on acquainting you with an environment. They are an important learning tool because they make you apply what you have learned to real-world situations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It primarily helps the developers gain practical, hands-on experience with cloud features and services. Furthermore, users can practice in a variety of settings and configurations without disturbing the cloud environment in the risk-free, controlled, and secured hands-on labs. Choose the type of lab according to your knowledge of cloud services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step 4:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Utilize <\/span><b>AWS Developer Associate Practice tests<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and get familiar with the question type.

The more you score on the tests, the more confident you become.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To ace the exam, you need to take adequate practice tests, as being well acquainted with the concepts will get your basics right, but practice tests mimic the exam environment and validate your concept learning. Taking practice tests is a must, but analyzing is the learning curve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step 5:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Cloud Playground: Sandboxes offer a variety of services for you to play around in the cloud environment without worrying about the bill and disturbing the setup. Sandboxes, unlike hands-on labs, are not pre-configured or guided. Cloud sandboxes typically start with a blank slate, allowing you to create or change code.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be a certified AWS professional: The final step is to schedule the exam and relax.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Topics_and_Focus_Areas_AWS_Developer_Associate_Certification_Exam_DVA-C02\"><\/span><b>Key Topics and Focus Areas: AWS Developer Associate Certification Exam (DVA-C02)<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a developer preparing for DVA-C02, you will be well-versed in developing and securing applications by using AWS service APIs, the AWS CLI, and <\/span><strong><a title=\"AWS SDKs\" href=\"https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/blog\/aws-sdk-integration-node-js\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AWS SDKs<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and using a <\/span><strong><a title=\"CI\/CD pipeline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/blog\/ci-cd-pipelines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CI\/CD pipeline <\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to deploy applications on AWS.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99601\" src=\"https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/aws-developer-associate-certification-exam-key-topics-focus-areas-1.webp\" alt=\"aws developer associate certification exam key topics\" width=\"821\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/aws-developer-associate-certification-exam-key-topics-focus-areas-1.webp 821w, https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/aws-developer-associate-certification-exam-key-topics-focus-areas-1-241x300.webp 241w, https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/aws-developer-associate-certification-exam-key-topics-focus-areas-1-768x958.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/aws-developer-associate-certification-exam-key-topics-focus-areas-1-150x187.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 821px) 100vw, 821px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Study_Plan_and_Resources_for_the_AWS_Developer_Associate_Certification_Exam\"><\/span><b>Study Plan and Resources for the AWS Developer Associate Certification Exam<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given that you have less than a year of experience with AWS services, if you spend 2 hours per day, it will take 2 to 3 months to prepare for the exam.
