AI certification & literacy

    ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor

    Five days on auditing an AI management system, following ISO 19011 audit principles and ISO/IEC 17021-1. Auditing AI raises an evidence problem that does not arise in an ISMS audit, because a model's behaviour is not a document, and that problem is most of what this course is about.

    The exam and the certificate

    The exam is sat at the end of the course and is included in the price. Certification is issued by PECB following successful examination and verification of professional experience against PECB’s published requirements, which vary by credential level. We tell candidates in advance where their experience may fall short of the credential they are aiming at.

    The same examination leads to a graded credential, from Provisional through to Senior, and the grade you receive depends on your documented professional experience and project involvement, not on your exam mark. We tell candidates before they book which grade their experience currently supports.
