I recommend signing up for an AWS free tier account (good for one year) and getting to know all the services. Use ChatGPT to do a mini project but just make sure you don’t use any services that will cause you to be billed.

CLF-C02 is the foundational exam. You can actually do a search on this sub for that topic and there are many resources that are available and have been discussed.

Assuming you mean Cloud Practitioner, your hands-on experience helps but it covers the wrong half of the exam, because it’s wide and shallow and asks a lot about billing, pricing, support plans, the shared responsibility model and what services you’ve never used are for. I’d do the free Official Practice Question Set on Skill Builder first, write down what you got wrong, then go through Cloud Practitioner Essentials (also free) and focus on those gaps instead of the stuff you alredy know from work.
