Five ways into this program
Module 1 levels the ground. People start from different points and finish in the same place: designing, implementing and auditing a artificial intelligence governance system.
Today: Implements systems on commission and needs to document their training.
On completion: Presents two academic certificates verifiable by code and QR.
Today: Knows the standard but has never led a third-party audit.
On completion: Leads a complete audit: opening, evidence, findings, closing and report.
Today: Works in development, analytics or legal and enters the field of artificial intelligence governance from scratch.
On completion: Levels up in module 1 and ends up auditing with the same standard as the rest.
Today: Is accountable for the certification of a company that develops or uses AI systems to customers and auditors.
On completion: Prepares the organization, audits from within and upholds the findings.
No prerequisites: module 1 levels the field. Familiarity with at least one AI system in use or under development in the case organization is recommended.

- Nearly all the standards were revised together: certified systems have to transition.
- Auditing requires demonstrated competence (ISO/IEC 17021-1), in addition to the training completed.
- Every system needs someone inside to sustain it between audits.
- Certification is demanded throughout the supply chain: clients, tenders and suppliers require it.
One path, two certificates
Whoever completes a diploma program receives two academic certificates under a single professional credential: management system design and internal audit. Both carry a code and QR; their authenticity is confirmed in writing, within 48 business hours, through assisted verification.
Management Systems Design
Design the standard's complete management system: context and scope, policy, risks, documentation, operation, indicators and improvement.
Stage assessment · assessment panel independent of the trainers
Internal Audit
Plan and conduct the internal audit —a first-party audit— based on the ISO 19011 cycle: program, plan, checklist, findings, report and follow-up.
Stage assessment · assessment panel independent of the trainers
G-CERTI Training academic certificates: they document training and assessed evidence. Certification audits and admission to the Auditors Division have their own requirements.
