The official open-source curriculum documents for CNCF certification exams such as CKA, CKAD, CKS, KCNA, and various project-specific associate certifications. It is a set of versioned reference documents (CC-BY 4.0+) that define the knowledge domains and skills tested on each exam.
Use cases
- prepare for the CKA Kubernetes administrator exam
- study for the CKAD or CKS certification
- find out what topics are covered on the KCNA exam
- align a training course with CNCF certification requirements
- check the latest exam curriculum version for Kubernetes 1.x
- review required skills for the Istio or Prometheus certified associate exams
When to choose
- you are preparing for any CNCF certification exam and want the authoritative topic list
- you are a training provider building courses aligned to CNCF exams
- you want to know exactly which Kubernetes, GitOps, or observability skills an exam covers
When to avoid
- you want a tutorial or hands-on course rather than an exam topic outline
- you need to learn Kubernetes from scratch with exercises and labs
- you are looking for software to install or run - this is documentation only
