The Path · Four Tiers

You don't buy a badge. You earn it.

Insignia are earned at gates, never granted. You advance by proving you can do the work, on real scenarios, in front of people who do it for a living.

How you advance

Two gates. Real proof at each one.

You move up by clearing gates, not by attending. Each gate is a real bar you clear on real work, judged by people who do it for a living.

Gate 1 · Certification
Earn the credential

Demonstrate Claude, tool use, and governance fundamentals, then sit and pass the official CCA-F exam (720 to pass).

Gate 2 · Delivery
Prove it on real work

Complete a supervised, applied delivery project on a real enterprise scenario, reviewed by senior architects.

Before the official exam, you clear an internal practice standard with structured coaching, so you sit the CCA-F ready, not hoping.
