While creating an EKS cluster in AWS, I encountered an error. , and also attached screenshot of the error. and I can’t log AWS CLI using IAM Access and secret key, Could you please help me resolve it.

You cannot create managed node groups, and you need to use specific roles on the playground.

Please follow one of these two guides to deploy EKS

You are trying to create a managed node group. As mentioned above, you cannot do this.
Please follow the playground series guide above to learn how to create an unmanaged node group.
