Before you enroll

Clear answers.

View the assessment
Is this for non-technical professionals?

Yes. The standard focuses on using AI for real work: writing, research, analysis, decisions and repeatable workflows. It is not a software engineering credential.

What does enrollment include?

The certification course, quizzes after each section, a 100-question final test and a project graded against the Council’s published rubric. Successful candidates receive a verifiable credential.

How much time should I plan for?

The curriculum contains about eight hours of lessons. Allow additional time for quizzes, the final test and your project. Lesson duration is not a promised completion time.

What makes this more than a course certificate?

Certification includes both knowledge assessment and review of applied work. The project rubric is public, and issued credentials can be checked on the Applied AI Registry.

Who delivers the course and awards the credential?

AiHammock delivers the certification course. AI Fluency Council sets the standard and grades the project. Issued credentials are recorded on the Applied AI Registry.
