What is the NVIDIA NCA-AMAD certification?

NCA-AMAD (NVIDIA-Certified Associate: AI Models and Application Development) validates foundational skills for building, customizing, deploying and evaluating AI models and applications on NVIDIA's platform, including retrieval pipelines, inference optimization and agentic systems. NVIDIA designed it for entry-level AI developers.

How many questions does the NCA-AMAD exam have and how long is it?

NVIDIA lists 50 to 60 multiple-choice questions in 1 hour, taken online through Certiverse with pass/fail scoring. NVIDIA's exam details also list a hands-on lab. The passing score is not published.

How much does the NCA-AMAD exam cost?

The exam costs $125 USD per attempt. The certification is valid for two years, and you recertify by taking the exam again.

Which topics does NCA-AMAD cover?

Eight sections: Agentic AI (17%), Data Processing and Data Flywheel (17%), Inference Concepts (15%), Model Customization and Fine-Tuning Concepts (14%), Models and Model Types (11%), NVIDIA AI Enterprise and Blueprints Overview (10%), Sizing and Configuration (10%) and Physical AI (6%).

How hard is the NCA-AMAD exam?

It is an associate-level exam, but it is broad: agents, data pipelines, LLM serving, fine-tuning, model selection, NVIDIA's software stack, robotics simulation and deployment sizing all appear. NVIDIA's sample questions are short scenarios, so you need to pick the right technique for a situation as well as know the terms.

What do the Preporato practice exams for NCA-AMAD include?

Six timed practice exams of 60 questions each, 360 in total, with each exam weighted like NVIDIA's eight sections. Every option has an explanation, and every question links to the NVIDIA documentation behind it. Each exam also includes six Select TWO questions for extra depth. The first five questions of each exam are free to try.

How should I prepare for NCA-AMAD?

NVIDIA recommends its AI Model and Application Development Fundamentals course and lists suggested reading for each section on the exam page. Then take timed practice exams, review every explanation, and book the exam once you score 80% or more on several of them.
