The certification

Prove what you can do, not what you memorized.

This certification is competency-based, not quiz-based. Nobody cares whether you can define a token. Employers care whether you can walk into a business and make AI useful. So that is the exam.

The final challenge

"You joined this company Monday morning. You have 4 hours. Find the biggest problems and use AI to create measurable value."

You receive access to Harborline Logistics — a fictional regional freight forwarding company with 42 employees. Inside: emails, meeting notes, SOPs, customer complaints, sales data, spreadsheets, management requests, and operational problems. The mess is intentional. Deciding what matters is the exam.

Submission

No step-by-step guidance. No hints. You submit findings, recommendations, deliverables, a workflow improvement, an automation proposal, and an executive summary.

What you must demonstrate

Ten behaviors. All observable. All scored.

Reviewers score what you produced and how you produced it — including the prompts, workflows, and verification steps you submit alongside your deliverables.

  • Identify the important problems hidden in messy information
  • Prioritize opportunities by business impact
  • Select the appropriate AI tools for each job
  • Research and verify missing information
  • Produce usable deliverables, not drafts
  • Verify AI-generated information before relying on it
  • Improve at least one existing workflow
  • Automate at least one process
  • Document the solution so others can run it
  • Present recommendations to management
The scoring rubric

Scored 0–100, weighted toward business impact.
