The Amazon Q Developer Knowledge Badge Readiness Path is a ten-training Skill Builder learning plan of 5 hours 25 minutes about using Amazon Q Developer, AWS's generative AI assistant, in software development workflows. The plan page describes it as self-paced training for software developers, DevOps engineers and technical practitioners with basic AWS knowledge, as well as cloud architects, technical leads and IT professionals who want AI-assisted tools in their development lifecycle. The outline moves from an introduction and setup through software development with Amazon Q Developer, code transformation, the command line interface, managing operations on AWS, customisation, prompt engineering and GitLab Duo with Amazon Q, and ends with the Amazon Q Developer Fundamentals Knowledge Badge Assessment, which the page says validates your skills and earns a Credly digital badge; the assessment's own listing describes an online test of 60 questions with a pass mark of 80 percent and unlimited attempts.

AWS's badge page says badges are free to earn and share once you pass with at least an 80 percent score. The plan page does not state a skill level. It carries no notice that any of its trainings requires a subscription, every outline item before the assessment is a digital course, and it appears under Skill Builder's free access tier, so a free Skill Builder account is all that is needed.
