Exam Content Breakdown

Based on the official GitHub (Microsoft) content outline

Prepare Agent Architecture and SDLC Processes15–20%

Integrating agents into the SDLC, defining planning/execution boundaries, structuring plan outputs, validating plans, and configuring observability and human-intervention controls

Implement Tool Use and Environment Interaction20–25%

Selecting and configuring agent tools, configuring MCP servers (including remote and registry), integrating agents in CI workflows and branch-based scopes, and implementing error handling, retries, rollbacks, and escalation paths

Manage Memory, State, and Execution10–15%

Choosing between short-term, long-term, and external memory; scoping memory to task-relevant information; capturing durable artifacts; detecting and correcting context drift; and ensuring state continuity across tools and environments

Perform Evaluation, Error Analysis, and Tuning15–20%

Defining success criteria and evaluation signals, using automated scanning tools, analyzing agent failures by root cause (reasoning error, tool misuse, context/environment), and tuning instructions, memory usage, and tool access

Orchestrate Multi-Agent Coordination15–20%

Applying orchestration patterns, configuring agent isolation for parallel execution, detecting and resolving conflicts (overlapping changes, duplicated effort, contradictory outputs), configuring multi-agent observability, and managing agent lifecycle in live workflows

Implement Guardrails and Accountability10–15%

Classifying agent actions by risk, assigning autonomy levels, blocking policy-violating actions, scoping permissions to least-privilege, requiring authorization for irreversible or compliance-sensitive changes, and preserving velocity by minimizing low-value approvals

Why It's Free

Quality Exam Prep Shouldn't Cost Hundreds

I'm Ran Chen, an engineer with 20+ years of coding experience. I passed my Life Insurance license, EA exam, SIE, Series 6, 63, 65, and finally the CFP® exam.

Through all these exams, one thing became clear: exam prep is expensive. But with AI, we can change that. Quality preparation can now be free for everyone.
