ANS-C01: AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty

The ANS-C01 exam voucher costs Rs 79,800/= at induwara.lk, payable in Sri Lankan rupees by card or bank transfer. It is an official single-use voucher for the AWS exam, not a practice test or a training course. The voucher is valid for 12 months from purchase. After payment our team confirms your order and sends the voucher code by email.

What this voucher is

Sitting ANS-C01: AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty? This is the AWS exam voucher, priced locally. It is the exam fee itself — a single-use code you redeem when you book your exam with the vendor's testing provider. It is not a training course, a practice test bundle or a study guide.

Each voucher is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase, so you can book the exam when you are ready rather than the day you buy.

Who sits this exam

ANS-C01: AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty is aimed at developers, sysadmins and architects working on cloud platforms. It is a specialty exam covering a focused area rather than a broad role. Cloud credentials travel further than almost anything else on a Sri Lankan CV, because the platform is identical everywhere.

Why buy it here

Vendor exam fees are quoted in US dollars, which means the rupee price you actually pay depends on your card's rate on the day and whatever your bank adds on top. Here the price is fixed in rupees — Rs 79,800/= — so what you see is what leaves your account.

You can pay by card through PayHere, or by direct bank transfer if you would rather not put an exam fee on a card. Both are confirmed by us before anything is sent.

How delivery works

Delivery is handled by a person, not a script. Once your payment is confirmed, our team contacts you and sends the voucher code to the email address on your order. That usually happens the same day, and you will hear from us either way — if there is any delay sourcing a particular voucher, we tell you rather than leaving the order sitting.

If you need an invoice for an employer or a training budget, say so when you order and we will issue one against the order number.

Exam at a glance

Exam length170 minutes
Questions65 questions — the exam guide states 50 'affect your score' plus '15 unscored questions'. The two sources disagree on question types: the exam guide lists only multiple response and matching ('a list of responses to match with a list of 3-7 prompts', all pairs required for credit), while the exam page describes the format as 'either multiple choice or multiple response'. Prepare for all three formats.
Passing score700 on a scaled range of 100-1,000, per the ANS-C01 exam guide, with compensatory scoring. Worth flagging: 700 is lower than the 750 used by the other professional and specialty exams in this range, and the exam-specific guide is the authority.
PrerequisitesNone required. The exam guide sets the target candidate at '5 or more years of networking experience with 2 or more years of cloud and hybrid networking experience', with recommended AWS knowledge covering AWS networking nuances and how they relate to the integration of AWS services, AWS security best practices, and AWS compute and storage options and their underlying consistency models. The exam page adds expected familiarity with advanced architectures including IP VPN, MPLS, automation tools and network security features.

What you get, and what happens next

What you get
One official single-use exam voucher for ANS-C01, ANS-C01: AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty, covering the exam fee in full. It is a code, not a study course and not a practice test. There is nothing physical to ship and no delivery charge.
When it arrives
Emailed to the address on your order once we have confirmed the payment, by a person rather than automatically. In practice that is usually the same day and almost always within one working day. If sourcing a particular voucher is going to take longer, we tell you rather than leaving the order sitting.
How long it stays valid
12 months from purchase. Book and sit the exam before it expires, a code that has simply run out of time cannot be replaced, so do not buy months ahead of when you plan to use it.
How you redeem it
Book the exam with Pearson VUE as normal, then enter this code at the payment step instead of paying the fee. You choose the date, and whether you sit it at a test centre or from home with OnVUE proctoring.
If the code does not work
If the vendor rejects it when you try to redeem it, tell us straight away and we replace it or refund you in full. Contact us before the voucher’s own expiry date.
If you do not pass
A voucher covers one attempt. A retake needs a new voucher, and the vendor, not us, sets how long you must wait before sitting the exam again. Check the vendor’s retake policy before you book.
Changing your mind
Full refund for any reason as long as we have not yet sent the code, including if you realise you have ordered the wrong exam, which is easy to do when codes look alike. Once the code has been sent it cannot be refunded, because the code is the product and it is single-use. Refunds & delivery in full.

What the exam covers

  • Network Design — 30% of scored content
  • Network Implementation — 26% of scored content
  • Network Security, Compliance and Governance — 24% of scored content
  • Network Management and Operation — 20% of scored content
  • Designing and developing hybrid and cloud-based networking solutions by using AWS
  • Using tools to deploy and automate hybrid and cloud-based AWS networking tasks
  • Implementing secure AWS networks using AWS native networking constructs and services

Where it leads

The credential covers hybrid connectivity and managed network work, but its shelf life as a purchasable goal is now short. AWS confirms that certifications earned before the retirement date remain active for the standard three-year period, so a pass in 2026 still counts on a CV into 2029. For anyone planning a certification path beyond 31 December 2026, AWS offers no direct replacement; the nearest professional-tier credentials still listed in its exam-guide index are DevOps Engineer - Professional (DOP-C02) and Solutions Architect - Professional (SAP-C02).

Sitting this exam in Sri Lanka

The decisive fact right now is timing rather than suitability: AWS is retiring this certification entirely after 31 December 2026, so a voucher only has value if you can prepare for and sit a 170-minute specialty exam before then. If you pass in time, AWS confirms certifications earned before retirement remain active for the standard three-year period. If you are starting from scratch, DOP-C02 or an Associate exam is the sounder purchase. Of the four languages offered, English is the one relevant here — there is no Sinhala or Tamil version — with the one-off 'ESL +30' accommodation available for non-native English speakers. Sit it at a Pearson VUE test centre or online proctored. The voucher is {{PRICE}}.

ANS-C01 exam fee and questions people ask

Is the Advanced Networking - Specialty certification being retired?
Yes. The AWS exam page states: 'This exam is being retired. The last day to take the exam is December 31, 2026. Certifications earned prior to the retirement of the exam will remain active for the standard three-year period.' AWS has announced no replacement exam. This is the certification itself ending, not just a language edition.
Should I still buy a voucher for this exam?
Only if you can realistically prepare for and sit a 170-minute specialty exam before 31 December 2026, and can schedule a Pearson VUE slot in time. The exam guide expects five or more years of networking experience with two or more in cloud and hybrid networking, so it is not a short study project from a standing start. If you are early in your AWS path, an Associate exam or DOP-C02 is a better use of the money.
What is the passing score for ANS-C01?
700 on a scaled range of 100 to 1,000, per the ANS-C01 exam guide, with compensatory scoring across sections. That is worth noting because the other professional and specialty exams in this range — DevOps Engineer - Professional, Generative AI Developer - Professional and the retired Machine Learning - Specialty — all pass at 750.
How long is the exam and what question types does it use?
170 minutes for 65 questions, of which 50 affect your score and 15 are unscored. The two AWS sources describe the format differently: the ANS-C01 exam guide lists multiple response and matching only, while the exam page says 'either multiple choice or multiple response'. Where the guide applies, multiple response requires every correct option selected and matching requires all 3 to 7 pairs correct, with no partial credit on either — so prepare for fewer single-answer marks than on a typical AWS exam.
How much networking experience does AWS expect?
Five or more years of networking experience with two or more years of cloud and hybrid networking experience. The exam guide also expects familiarity with AWS networking nuances and how they relate to the integration of AWS services, AWS security best practices, and AWS compute and storage options and their underlying consistency models. Nothing is formally required, but this is the deepest recommended profile in the AWS range.
Which domain is weighted heaviest?
Network Design at 30% of scored content, then Network Implementation at 26%, Network Security, Compliance and Governance at 24%, and Network Management and Operation at 20%. Design and implementation together account for well over half the exam.
If I fail, will I have time to retake before retirement?
That depends entirely on when you first sit it. AWS enforces a 14 calendar day wait after a failure, with no limit on attempts but the full registration fee payable each time. With retirement fixed after 31 December 2026, anyone planning for the possibility of a retake should book a first attempt with several weeks of margin and hold a second voucher in reserve.
