Built for the people who use AI to do the work — and the teams who depend on them.

Two audiences, one standard. Find your case below.

The career case

Employers have already decided this matters. 60% say they’d choose a less-experienced candidate who holds a generative-AI credential over a more-experienced one who doesn’t, and 94% say they’d pay a micro-credential holder a higher starting salary.1 Meanwhile the pay premium for AI skills climbed from 25% in 2024 to 62% by 2026, and it’s highest in the non-technical, role-based work Certavant certifies.2 The demand is settled. What’s been missing is a credential an employer can actually trust.

Why a CAI credential

  • Proof over claims. “Familiar with AI tools” is on every résumé now. A CAI credential is the graded work that backs it up.
  • The credential is a portfolio. Every credential is a public evidence page with your real work embedded.
  • Role-specific, not generic. You’re certified for Marketing, Sales, Support, HR, or Data & Business Analysis — not AI trivia.
  • A free place to start. CAI-1 “AI Foundations” costs nothing and is a real, failable exam.
  • LinkedIn-ready titles. Credentials read cleanly on a profile — for example, CAI-2 AI Practitioner (Marketing).

Your path: a marketer’s example

CAI-1 — AI Foundations

Prove the fundamentals: prompting, verification, and handling data responsibly.

CAI-2 — AI Practitioner (Marketing)

Build a campaign brief with AI, catch seeded errors in a competitive analysis, and re-issue it with a verification log.

CAI-3 — AI Automation Specialist (Marketing)

Move from using AI to orchestrating the automated workflows behind the campaigns.

CAI-4 — AI Systems Architect

For when you’re accountable for how a whole organisation uses AI.

Most organisations have paid for AI seats and run some training, and still can’t answer the simple question: who on this team can genuinely do the work well, and who’s just been shown the buttons? Course-completion reports don’t tell you. A performance credential does.

Why Certavant for a team

  • Verify real capability, not course completions. A CAI pass is graded work, not a progress bar at 100%.
  • Assign tracks with due dates. Assign a track, set a deadline, and let automatic reminders do the nudging.
  • See per-learner progress. A dashboard shows where each person is, their results, and links to their credentials.
  • An org verification view. A roll-up of held credentials for leadership, customers, or a regulator.
  • EU AI Act Article 4 readiness. A verifiable, performance-based record supports the obligation to ensure staff AI literacy.
  • Self-serve, from a handful of seats. Buy seats, invite your team, and start — no sales call or large minimum.

How rollout works

Start small and send invites. No demo required.

Assign a track with a due date.

Pick tracks that fit each role and let automatic reminders handle the follow-up.

Watch the dashboard fill in.

Track progress and results, see credentials as they’re earned, and export the data anytime.
