Prepare for the Claude Certified Associate – Foundations exam, on the exam guide version 1.0, effective July 2026. In this lesson: turning raw notes into needs, constraints, acceptance criteria, and open questions, specific and testable requirements, use cases with their edge cases, plans with dependencies, owners, risks, and milestones, and optimizing a process: describe it as it is today, measure, and test small. Includes three original practice questions.
