CPMAI Certification FAQ

How long does training & certification take?

Each CPMAI Training & certification course has a different number of total hours which combines video topic lesson hours, exercises, workbook application, and a final certification exam. Courses are structured as self-paced online instruction plus an additional set of exercise questions focused on learning understanding and CPMAI workbook “checkpoints” that you can use to apply what you learned to your own project. Finally, there is a 90 question certification exam timed for 2 hours, with 2 exam attempts allowed. You can complete CPMAI training and certification in as little as one week or as much as six months.

What is included in CPMAI Training and Certification fee?

The CPMAI Training and Certification fee is all-inclusive, providing all necessary online, self-paced learning, supporting materials including workbook and downloadable training materials, self-graded exercises, and participation in our CPMAI professionals community starting at time of training enrollment. You may retain the downloadable training materials and workbook for your current and future projects as long as they are not publicly shared or posted online. Training videos are not available for download as they are embedded in our online Learning Management System (LMS). Each certification course includes a timed, online certification exam which allows up to 2 exam retakes.

How is CPMAI training & certification delivered?

CPMAI training and certification is offered as an online, self-paced course that includes all exercises and certification exam online as well.

How can I access CPMAI Training & Certification materials?

Once you sign up for the training you will be prompted to create a username and password. This will allow you access to all training materials.

How can I log into the Cognilytica Online Training and Course system (LMS)?

To access any Cognilytica training and/or certification that you’ve registered and paid for, visit https://courses.cognilytica.com/my-account/ to login and access your course and certification content and materials.

How long do I have access to CPMAI Training and Certification Course Materials?

You have access to the course and all materials for ninety (90) days after the date of purchase. Additionally, once completed with all videos and exercises,  you have access to all materials for 30 days after certification is issued.

What are the necessary training and certification prerequisites?

No prior knowledge or experience in AI or advanced data is needed. Knowledge of project management and IT is helpful, but not a prerequisite. The CPMAI Certification is primarily for those in project or product management, IT, business management, and executive roles that are currently or will be involved in advanced data and AI projects. CPMAI has certified many people in roles such as project management, compliance, legal, risk, procurement, business strategy, analytics, product management, engineering, and many non-IT roles and titles.

Do I need to know anything about or have prior knowledge in AI or data for the CPMAI Training and Certification?

The CPMAI Training and Certification doesn’t require any prior knowledge or experience on AI or advanced data. The CPMAI training and certification course starts with a foundation of AI, foundation of data science, and each subsequent module explains the concepts at the level of detail needed to understand how to manage AI projects from the project manager’s perspective, rather than from the low-level implementation perspective.

How long is the CPMAI certification valid?

Once you are CPMAI certified, your certification doesn’t expire for the CPMAI version that you were certified on.

 

There are no requirements for CEUs, PDUs, or other continuing education to maintain a valid certification for the CPMAI version you are certified on.

 

We update our CPMAI certification periodically, so to maintain your CPMAI certification for the latest version, you can upgrade to a new CPMAI version when it has been announced. We always provide a discount on CPMAI certification to those who have been certified in previous versions.

How do I maintain my CPMAI Certification?

CPMAI Certification is easy to keep up to date and relevant for your current and future projects. Once you are CPMAI certified for a CPMAI version, that CPMAI certification never expires. To keep your CPMAI certification up to date on the latest version, just upgrade to the latest CPMAI version when it becomes available. We always offer discounts to those who have been previously CPMAI certified to keep your CPMAI certification up to date with the latest best practices.

How does CPMAI™ Differ from other Certifications?

The CPMAI Certification is focused on providing project management methodology for running AI, machine learning, and advanced data projects. Other certifications are either focused on vendor- or technology-specific low-level development or data science needs or are more generally focused on project management skills independent of their application. Certainly, there’s nothing wrong with having a vendor-specific certification for a cloud platform or development tool, and nothing wrong with having a certification to learn data science skills. As well, there’s nothing wrong with having a certification focused on project management skills such as a PMP or Agile certification. In fact, if you have any of these certifications, you’ll find even more value in the CPMAI Certification. Many of our CPMAI Certified community have certifications including PMP, LSS, SAFe, ITIL certifications and a wide range of technical and project-specific certifications from vendors such as AWS, Microsoft, IBM, and others.

 

CPMAI Certification fills in the gaps of these technology-specific or project management-general certifications. CPMAI provides the specific best practices methodologies you need to run AI and advanced data projects with confidence in their success, and the certification earned is a signal to employers, recruiters, clients, and colleagues that you have the specific skills needed to run AI and data projects with success. There are no credible alternatives to the vendor-neutral, best practices-based, CRISP-DM and Agile foundation of the CPMAI certification for AI and data project management methodology.

What steps are involved in CPMAI Certification?

Follow these steps to get on your way to your CPMAI Certification. The first step to certification is completing an authorized CPMAI Training on the latest version of the CPMAI Certification curricula. Currently, only Cognilytica offers authorized Certified training. Training is offered as online, self-paced training with all exercises, exams, and workbook activities provided online.

During each training, each trainee will be required to complete exercises that ascertain understanding of the material, and the completion of the workbook which ascertains ability to apply the material to current or conceptual projects. After the completion of all exercises and passing the CPMAI certification exam with a score of at least 70% (2 retry attempts provided), a CPMAI Certification is granted for that CPMAI version. By using the online, self-paced Learning Management System (LMS), the certificate is provided automatically in electronic form.

Keep your CPMAI up to date by upgrading to the latest version of the CPMAI Certification at any time when we have announced a new version of CPMAI.

Do you offer Group Training and Certification Discounts?

Yes! We offer a discount of 10% for groups of five (5) or more enrolled at the same time  in self-paced, online CPMAI Training and Certification. We offer additional discounts for groups of ten (10) or more enrolled at the same time in the self-paced, online training. To qualify for group discount, simply send us a message at info@cognilytica.com with the names and email addresses of the group you wish to enroll, and the group can either make a single payment on behalf of the whole group or each individual can pay as part of the group.

How do I share my CPMAI certification?

After you have successfully achieved your CPMAI Certification, there are a a number of ways you can share your certification with the world:

  • Step 1: Get Noticed! Add the CPMAI Certification to your Licenses & Certifications on your LinkedIn profile.  Instructions on how to add/link your certificate to your profile can be found at: https://courses.cognilytica.com/2021/10/08/add-your-cpmai-certificate-to-your-linkedin-profile/.  Email us at info@cognilytica.com if you’d like a PDF and PNG version of your certificate, if you haven’t already downloaded it from the CPMAI course site upon receipt of your certificate.
  • Step 2: Get Recognition! Make a LinkedIn post sharing your certification. LinkedIn doesn’t automatically share notifications of certifications and licenses, but you deserve the attention and the kudos! Create a LinkedIn post and say “Thrilled to be #CPMAI #certified by @Cognilytica” with the PNG certificate as the image of the post. If you also tag @Cognilytica, we will give you additional value by liking , commenting, and sharing your post.
  • Step 3: Get More Value! Refer to yourself in  your email signatures and online profiles.  All CPMAI certified individuals can add to their online profiles and signatures the following lines:
    • CPMAI AI & ML Project Management Certified
    • OPTIONAL: Add the CPMAI suffix to your name on LinkedIn profile just as others do for PMP and other certifications (for example “Jane Doe, CPMAI”)

We also offer digital badges that you can share on  social media platforms, as part of your email signature, on resumes, and in other professional places where you would like to showcase your certifications and credentials. You should have received an automatic link to your electronic badge upon the grant of your CPMAI Certification. If you didn’t receive the link to your badge or need us to resend your badge to you, please email us at info@cognilytica.com.

Can I get my employer to reimburse me for CPMAI training and certification?

You might be able to get your current employer to cover your CPMAI certification and training costs as part of their tuition reimbursement or continuing education benefits. Many organizations offer several thousand dollars a year in employee skilling and training benefits, and you can take advantage of that for your CPMAI certification and training fee. Find out if your current employer will reimburse or pay directly for professional certifications, such as they would for the PMI PMP certification, for example.

Do you have discounts for students or government employees?

Currently, we don’t have any specific discounts for full-time students or government employees. However, the CPMAI certification and training cost is under the US Government “Minimum Purchase Threshold (MPT)” and qualifies for training under SF-182 for individuals and groups, and as such would be reimbursable or directly payable by the government for current, full-time government employees. For current students, we offer group discounts for five or more people who enroll and pay for CPMAI training and certification at the same time. Find a group of people and we’ll give you a 10% discount for five or more enrolled at the same time, and a 20% discount for 10 or more enrolled at the same time.

What is your refund policy?

There are no refunds granted for membership fees or CPMAI training and certification fees. If you enroll for CPMAI but are unable to use the training or certification before you have started the course, please let us know and we can make arrangements to transfer it to someone else or alternate arrangements.

Can I get college or academic credit for CPMAI Certification?

Cognilytica is a professional certification / credential granting organization, and not an accredited academic institution, in much the same way that the Project Management Institute (PMI) is a certification organization and has no academic accreditation. The training that is bundled with the CPMAI Certification gives you the training to get the certification,and can earn CEUs and PDUs that would be honored by PMI and other project management certification organizations.

Can I get PMI PDUs for my CPMAI training and certification?

Yes! Many of our CPMAI trainees have successfully gotten up to 39 hours of PDU credit towards PMI PMP maintenance and other certification goals. Check out our PDU guide for CPMAI here: https://www.cognilytica.com/earn-pdus-for-pmp-with-cpmai/

How does CPMAI enhance my career path?

The CPMAI certification is a sign to current and potential employers that you have the right project management skills needed to successfully run and manage AI, ML, and advanced analytics projects. Getting certified augments, enhances, and extends any experience you might have in project management or AI. Or, if you lack that experience, it shows employers that you have gone through best practices methodology that will be instantly applicable to current or future AI projects

Do Employers care about the CPMAI Certification?
  • Absolutely! Employers are looking for individuals to run AI projects that have the project management and AI skills necessary to make an impact on day one of their efforts. CPMAI certification has directly helped individuals participate in major AI initiatives and get employed at organizations including Shell, AstraZeneca, Coca-Cola, consulting and contracting firms such as Deloitte, Maximus, and government agencies and organizations across the world.

CPMAI certification opens the door of opportunity for you as a certified project manager for the duration of your certification with additional CPMAI learning opportunities included with your membership, opportunities to interact with the CPMAI community, and job postings from employers looking for CPMAI certified individuals as we announce them.
