How the Certified Applied AI Expert came about.
Tim and Fabio were already working intensively with AI. They were looking for a compact format with a clear focus on practice.
When they asked Kimia which training she would recommend, her answer was honest: she did not know any format that met this standard and that she could support with full conviction.
So they built the Certified Applied AI Expert together. Tim and Fabio were part of the first cohort and applied what they learned directly in their company, T4 Capital AG.
