I’m proud to officially be able to share that I am a Certified AI Consultant through Innovating with AI's "The Consultancy Project" program - one of just over two dozen certified professionals out of more than 1,000 students worldwide.
This milestone marks a big step in my career, but more importantly, it highlights the growing importance of certification in AI consulting.
A Certified AI Consultant is a professional who has completed a recognized training and evaluation program to demonstrate expertise in helping businesses understand, adopt, and apply artificial intelligence.
The Innovating with AI certification covers:
Advanced AI skills – how modern AI works and where it can be applied.
Automation design – building workflows that save time and reduce manual tasks.
Prompt engineering – leveraging language models effectively.
Implementation strategy – introducing AI in a way that’s practical, ethical, and scalable.
Ethical consulting skills - Consulting skills and strategies based on industry best practices and ethical considerations.
For businesses, working with a certified consultant means having a trusted partner who blends technical knowledge with real-world business insight.
The explosion of AI tools has created both opportunity and confusion. Many organizations know they need to adopt AI but don’t know where to start. A Certified AI Consultant helps by:
Identifying high-impact use cases that actually solve business problems.
Training teams to build confidence and fluency in AI tools.
Designing custom automations to streamline operations.
Ensuring adoption is responsible, ethical, and aligned with company goals.
A little over a year ago, I was at a crossroads in my career. I was in a career path that no longer fit my lifestyle and completely burned out from the stress and frustration.
I knew I needed a pivot, but I wasn’t sure how to take the leap. The Innovating with AI program came at exactly the right moment.
It gave me:
A structured path to build my expertise.
Mentorship from industry leaders.
A community of peers to learn and grow alongside.
That foundation gave me the confidence to launch Elevate AI Consulting, where I now help businesses harness AI through training, strategy, and automation.
A huge thank you to Rob Howard and the entire Innovating with AI team for creating a program that not only teaches AI but empowers people to transform their careers.
Looking ahead, I’m excited to be part of Innovating with AI’s Certified AI Consultants Directory, a first-of-its-kind resource connecting businesses with certified professionals that will launch later this week.
This milestone is just the beginning: for me, for Elevate AI Consulting, and for the many organizations ready to embrace the future of work.
