AWS Certification without an exam: how the maintain program works

Since June 23, 2026, AWS introduced a new recertification path called Maintain (open beta) that lets holders of active AWS certifications extend their validity by 1 year without retaking an exam. Instead, you complete curated digital courses and hands-on labs on AWS Skill Builder, earning 500 points (Associate) or 700 points (Professional) with minimum practical activity requirements. Currently eligible certifications include Solutions Architect Professional/Associate, DevOps Engineer Professional, Developer Associate, and CloudOps Engineer Associate. A notable cascading feature automatically extends related lower-level certifications when a higher-level one is maintained. Requirements include an active Skill Builder subscription and a certification within 90 days of expiration. The existing Renewal path (exam-based, 3-year validity) remains available as an alternative.
