Claude Certified Architect Professional (CCAR-P): 28% of It Isn't Technical
CCAR-P is the most expensive and most senior of Anthropic's four exams ($175, 63 items, 120 minutes). Integration is the heaviest domain at 19%, but what really separates it from everything else in this series is the other two: Governance, Safety & Risk Management at 14% and Stakeholder Communication & Lifecycle Management at 14% — 28% combined on compliance, risk, discovery interviews, and delivery lifecycle rather than code. The guide names GDPR, HIPAA, and FedRAMP, and its Intended Audience explicitly excludes entry-level developers and anyone doing 'prompt writing without broader system design responsibility.'
