I recently noticed that PMI has introduced the Cognitive Project Management for AI (CPMAI) certification, which sounds like an exciting opportunity for learning and growth. However, I've observed that the certification fees are significantly higher than those of most other PMI certifications. Could anyone share insights on why the market positioning of this certification is so different? Saving Changes...

@Danny Seow - To answer your previous questions:
All CPMAI certifications issued by Cognilytica and on the Cognilytica LMS will never expire and will continue to be valid without any ongoing maintenance or renewal requirements.
Anyone who has completed their certification on the Cognilytica LMS or prior Cognilytica in-person training and granted a CPMAI certification by Cognilytica will receive a PMI logo-branded Certification with a Credly badge and registration in PMI registry in addition to their Cognilytica certification and badge.

Forget about it. It has no sense. Why? Simple: take a look to AI in that field then you will understand that it is a waist of time and money. And remember: if you need to learn about a topic a certification is not the right source for doing that. Saving Changes...

I am almost at the last lesson of CPMAI training (the full version). First of all, this is a very well designed and comprehensive training which brings together various concepts. Thank you to Cognitytica team!
I have a question about the exam: Is there a way to practice the exam before trying our lock with the real exam?

I would also like to know if there is at least one free mock test available. I am currently mid-way through this course and it would be great to have a practice test before the actual one. Please do let us know, thanks.

Farnaz Abroon, I'm looking into this course and certification as a way to improve and showcase my skills in using GenAI to manage projects. Could you share your experience with the course in terms of not only leading projects to implement AI tools within the organization, but also using AI tools to help manage traditional projects using predictive, hybrid, or Agile frameworks?
I use AI regularly with my projects, so I'm hoping to see how others use AI tools to help with project management.
Hello PMI and Team for CPMAI
I look forward to take up this learning opportunity. I have gone through the FAQ section. Still got few queries before I enroll. Whom can I reach out for further caprification. Saving Changes...

$995 for certification is a steep price to pay for this certification and 90 days to finish training and getting ceritfied. Waiting for PMI to integrate so that we just pay the fees for the exam and other training providers are opened up.

This is only for the basic level. The highest level is $1,395 but I believe it is worth it. However, its not a bad idea to wait until the full integration with PMI.

Yeah. Saw that. $995 at the minimum is still a steep price and then addons to get full package (I persoanlly don't like that approach and makes it look as its for the money only!). I did read that Q1'25 is the timeline to integrate to PMI. Is it end of Q1'25 or a more accurate deadline?
