There's a quiet moment after reaching a major milestone (the bar exam, in my case) when the question becomes: what now? For me, somewhere between sitting in silence, asking myself that question, and doom-scrolling social media, the answer appeared unexpectedly – in the form of the CIPP/E exam (I don't remember consenting to a targeting cookie being placed on my brain).

Officially AIGP certified. The AI Governance Professional certification has been on my radar for a while, and I'm glad to say it's done. A few things that helped me: → Kyle David PhD AIGP accelerator — structured, focused, and worth every hour. I cannot stress this enough, his teaching and materials are dang-near multiversal. → Scenario-based practice at or above exam difficulty (not just memorizing definitions). → Understanding the WHY behind frameworks, not just the WHAT. → Knowing the distinctions — developer vs deployer, Govern vs Map vs Measure vs Manage, ISO 22989 vs 42001 vs 42005. → Treating governance as a life cycle discipline, not a pre-deployment checkbox.

AI regulation is inevitable. The EU already has regulations in place, while others are still catching up. Understanding this is key to deploying AI responsibly. That is why I pursued and am now officially AIGP certified. The certification covers the full AI lifecycle with a strong emphasis on AI governance. It explores global regulatory frameworks such as the EU AI Act, OECD AI Principles, and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, along with emerging laws in the US, UK, Canada, and China. It reinforced how governance, legal, ethical, and risk management considerations need to be built into AI systems from design through deployment to enable responsible and scalable use. Here's a great resource on AIGP certification: Kyle David PhD's masterclass.
I am excited to share that I have earned the Artificial Intelligence Governance Professional (AIGP) certification.
