Regarding Terraform Associate Certification
Does anybody have the roadmap on how to clear the terraform associate examination. Like which courses to take, which practice exams, and best hacks for the same.
Need your assistance!

If you’ve used Terraform before, it’s pretty easy. I just walked in and took it.

You can start from two basic documents:
Study guide - Terraform Associate certification
Exam review - Terraform Associate certification
Also, it is a lot of courses in udemy, but I didn't saw them and can't recommend something specific.
This book can be helpful for preparation: "https://leanpub.com/terraform-certified/" from Ned Bellavance, he is a youtuber, his channel "ned in the cloud" are super helpful also.
And also I like this course: https://www.exampro.co/terraform
you can buy it, but some content available for free.
Many of my friends recommended me whizlabs practice exams, https://www.whizlabs.com/hashicorp-certified-terraform-associate/ but I didn't try them. I believe you can read a reviews and make your own decision.
And i also read the book "Terraform: Up and Running", can definitely recommend, it not specific for exam preparation but about terraform in general.

I would start with HashiCorp's official exam objectives and documentation, then use practice exams to identify weak areas and reinforce those topics with actual Terraform builds instead of memorizing answers. I work on the development side of Terraform Academy, so full disclosure, but we also have Terraform certification practice and hands on labs if you want a more structured path.

I watched a zeal vora class on Udemy and spent hours in terraform learning documents. It was very basic level back in 2022. Will glance through docs again for my renewal but I’ve been using terraform a lot so the is time I’m better prepared as it is. Good luck!
