Certified AI Expertise You Can Verify

Home – Certifications and Partnerships

Our AI regulation and development credentials aren’t marketing claims—they’re verified certifications proving we implement AI governance according to federal standards and deploy production systems on enterprise-grade infrastructure. Credentials that regulators and auditors recognize.

Enterprise IT Solutions for Regulated Industries

Why AI Certifications Matter

Anyone can claim AI expertise. Few possess verified credentials proving they implement AI governance and development according to recognized standards.

Organizations evaluating AI consultants need validation beyond marketing claims. Do consultants actually understand NIST AI Risk Management Framework or just reference it in proposals? Can they deploy production AI infrastructure on Kubernetes or only discuss it theoretically? Do they implement ISO 27000 security for AI systems or provide generic recommendations?

Certifications answer these questions. They represent formal validation that consultants possess specific knowledge and can demonstrate required competencies.

For Fortune 500 organizations where AI failures carry severe regulatory, financial, and reputational consequences, verified expertise matters more than impressive claims.

Our Certifications

Our AI-Focused Certifications

We hold two specialized certifications directly supporting our AI regulation and development services:

Kubernetes Certification

Certification: Certified Kubernetes Professional

Why This Matters For AI: Kubernetes provides the enterprise-grade container orchestration infrastructure modern AI systems require for scalability, reliability, and portability across cloud providers. Our Kubernetes certification validates ability to:

How This Benefits Clients: Your AI systems deploy on production-grade infrastructure rather than experimental setups. You get scalable, reliable AI deployments following enterprise best practices that DevOps teams recognize and can maintain.

ISO 27000 Information Security Management

Certification: ISO 27000 Certified

Why This Matters For AI: ISO 27000 provides the framework for information security management systems. We extend this foundation to address AI-specific security challenges that standard implementations miss:

How This Benefits Clients: Your AI systems receive comprehensive security assessment addressing both traditional information security and AI-specific vulnerabilities. You get security frameworks auditors understand and regulators accept.

Our Expertise

Core AI Governance Expertise

Beyond infrastructure and security certifications, our team maintains deep expertise in AI governance frameworks essential for regulated industries:

NIST AI Risk Management Framework

While not offering traditional certification programs, NIST AI RMF represents the federal standard for AI governance. Our team has completed comprehensive NIST AI RMF training and maintains current knowledge of framework updates.

Framework Components:

Application: We implement complete NIST AI RMF governance for organizations requiring federal standard compliance or best-practice AI risk management.

Additional Professional Development

Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe)

Certified SAFe practitioner ensuring AI development integrates with enterprise Agile processes.

DevSecOps Practices

Formal training in security integration throughout development lifecycle—essential for AI systems in regulated industries.

Enterprise Architecture

20+ years implementing mission-critical systems at IBM, providing practical experience that formal certifications alone cannot deliver.

Popular Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

No formal licensing requirements exist for AI consulting. However, certifications provide independent validation that consultants possess claimed expertise. For Fortune 500 organizations where AI failures carry severe consequences, verified credentials offer assurance beyond marketing claims. Certifications don’t guarantee success, but they validate foundational knowledge.

Our Kubernetes certification includes digital credentials verifiable through official credentialing platforms. We provide verification links during consultation. For other expertise areas like NIST AI RMF where formal certification programs don’t exist, we demonstrate knowledge through detailed framework discussions and provide client references confirming successful implementations.

Yes. As new relevant certification programs emerge and existing frameworks evolve, we pursue credentials maintaining current expertise. AI governance and development change rapidly—static knowledge becomes obsolete. Continuous professional development isn’t optional; it’s essential for providing current best practices to clients.

Depends on project requirements. For AI governance, NIST AI RMF expertise and ISO 27000 security knowledge matter most. For AI development, Kubernetes certification for infrastructure and DevSecOps knowledge for security integration are critical. Industry-specific knowledge (HIPAA, SEC requirements, etc.) may matter more than general certifications depending on your sector.

Tech company consultants often have vendor-specific certifications (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud). We maintain vendor-neutral expertise applicable across platforms. Our IBM background provides Fortune 500 enterprise experience that vendor-certified consultants from product companies often lack. We understand organizational complexity, not just technology features.
