What you'll learn

What is Claude Code Certification?

Understand what the exam actually tests, not memorization, but production judgment: when to use which Claude feature.

Walk away with a study system

We cover the 5 domains mapped to real decisions you already make as a builder, so studying feels easir.

Know exactly what to do the week before the exam

Learn which question types trip people up, how scoring works, and what a 900-level answer looks like.

Why this topic matters

AI engineers are shipping Claude into production without understanding how it actually works under the hood. That gap shows up as brittle agents, broken tool routing, and prompts that fail at scale. The CCA-F certification forces precision and the people who hold it build systems that don't break. This session closes that gap in an hour.

You'll learn from

Hamza Farooq

Founder | Ex-Google & Walmart Labs |Adjunct UCLA & UMN, SCU | Venture Partner

Hi, I’m Hamza. I’m a founder by day and a professor by night, working at the intersection of Agents and Product Design.

I started Traversaal.ai with a simple goal: to build scalable AI products for startups and enterprises that integrate smoothly into existing systems while staying flexible and cost efficient.

We’ve had the opportunity to work with Fortune 100 companies, and the lessons from those experiences are woven directly into this course.

This course brings together everything I’ve learned in practice, along with the material I teach across universities.

I still spend a lot of time writing code, you can check out my GitHub.

I also share my thoughts and learnings on how organizations should think about moving demos to production grade scale on, The Production Gap: Substack.

Aishwarya Ashok

AI Product Builder | Podcaster, The Founder’s Foyer | Startup Advisor

Hey, I’m Aishwarya, a product builder obsessed with turning ideas into working products, with AI in the mix. Over the last decade across SaaS, I’ve shipped zero-to-one products, scaled product marketing motions, and worked across several domains.


 Beyond work:

→ I host The Founder’s Foyer, a podcast and builder collective where we deconstruct how raw ideas become real-world products

→ I mentor startup founders as a part of incubators and programs like Stanford Seed Spark

→ I tinker with AI + video workflows, expanding the boundaries of GenAI filmmaking and storytelling

→ And when I’m not building, you’ll find me sketching old cities, hosting heritage art walks, and running my tech-led e-commerce brand, Rue Des Arts.

Previously worked at:

Google
Walmart
University of Minnesota
Gallup
