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...

Hello Rami Kaibni -- Yes, for the CPMAI v7 price you get the self-paced, online course (27-36 hours depending on level) and the certification exam included. Not live training, but self-paced with exercises and workbook as well. Check the full details at https://courses.cognilytica.com. Will be moved to PMI LMS and systems soon!
To all in this thread. I am enrolled in the current CMPAI course. First, for anyone who is working with AI and needs a foundation this course is a must. Second, for the current course, when you add up any other PMI training for a certification plus the test, CMPAI is actually a deal for the current online course. I highly recommend it.

Hi Robert. I am halfway through the training and extremely impressed with the course. Were you able to complete the course and pass the exam? I am wondering if there is a practice exam available or if you have any other helpful tips.

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. Saving Changes...

I'm also interested in a practice exam if possible. I'm almost 50% with the course.
Thank you

Hey Christine, did you find a mock exam? Have you attempted the actual exam yet? If so, could you let me know about the difficult of questions and any relevant facts that might be of help?

Hi all, as an update to the topics and questions raised in this thread, the CPMAI™ certification has been brought into the PMI ecosystem and is now live on PMI.org.
You will notice updated pricing; an enhanced exam experience; an introductory course to get you started; and advanced eLearning options.
Laura, candidates should be really happy with the new updates because there is a decent reduction in pricing. I took the +E course and exam a month ago and paid more than 3 times the current fees, and the exam was 3 hours but not proctored, unlike the current exam.
I personally highly encourage those who are interested in AI to pursue this course and certification.

Unfortunately, like other things in the PMI, the intention is taking more money only. Just in case you need take knowledge about AI you will find better resources for free. If you need take knowledge about generative AI the free courses delivered by the PMI for free are all you need. If you need to take knowledge about AI in general the best source is Google.

Ronald Schmelzer I am currently working on the course and certification. Is the slide deck going to be available as well? Right now it is just the workbook and glossary. Saving Changes...

Hi! Now that this is an official PMI certification, I am finding it difficult to find up to date information on the exam.
1) Is it online or in person at Pearson?
2) If it is online, is it hosted through the Pearson proctored portal? (I've had limited success with the portal in the past).
3) Are there practice exams available that are in line with the current exam?
4) Are there plans to change any of this in the next few months - put differently, I don't want to take the course, practice for the exam and then the exam format, content, etc. changes shortly thereafter.
Thanks everyone! Super excited to delve into this course!
