Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Machine Learning Speciality training course

Is the Machine Learning Speciality certification exam included in the course fee, and what is the cost if separate?
The Machine Learning Speciality certification exam by Open Source is not included in the course fee. You must purchase it separately for $300 USD. Candidates take the AWS Certified Machine Learning – Specialty (MLS-C01) exam via Pearson VUE online or at centers. Active AWS certification holders receive a 50% discount.
What training formats are offered for the Machine Learning Speciality course, and is Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling available?
Koenig Solutions provides the Machine Learning Speciality course via live online 1-on-1, public instructor-led, and self-paced (Flexi) formats. All options are Guaranteed-to-Run (GTR). This ensures your training proceeds as scheduled regardless of enrollment numbers, allowing you to plan your professional development without any risk of sudden cancellation.
How long is lab access provided, and what type of lab environment is used for the Machine Learning Speciality course?
You receive 30 days of post-training lab access for the Machine Learning Speciality course. These cloud-hosted sandbox environments use AWS infrastructure. Labs include pre-configured tools like Jupyter notebooks and SageMaker, letting you practice real-world ML workflows securely within a browser-based IDE to build actual technical proficiency.
What is Koenig's rescheduling and cancellation policy for the Machine Learning Speciality training?
Koenig allows free rescheduling of your Machine Learning Speciality training if requested over 10 days before the start date. Changes within 10 days incur a 50% fee of the total price. Cancellations follow this same policy, and you may reschedule any single enrollment session only one time.
What is the format, number of questions, passing score, and time limit for the Machine Learning Speciality certification exam?
The Machine Learning Speciality exam features 65 multiple-choice and multiple-response questions. You have a 180-minute time limit to achieve a minimum passing score of 750 out of 1000. Of the 65 questions, 50 are scored, while 15 items are unscored experimental questions indistinguishable from the rest.
How long is the Machine Learning Speciality certification valid, and what is the renewal process and cost?
The Machine Learning Speciality certification is valid for 3 years from the date you earn it. Recertification requires passing the latest exam version. The renewal cost is $300 USD, though active AWS certification holders can access a 50% discount voucher directly through their official AWS Certification Account.
