Why This Certificate Stands Apart
In a crowded market of AI courses, TAISE is built for real-world impact. Developed by the Cloud Security Alliance, the industry leader in AI best practices through our innovative AI Safety Initiative, we have leveraged a massive global network of experts in AI and cloud security to identify the knowledge needed to enable trustworthy AI.
To design this certificate, CSA partnered with Northeastern University's Institute of Experiential AI and its renowned Experiential Digital Global Education (EDGE) team, experts in industry-facing online learning. Together, we're delivering practical, trusted education for the next era of IT and cybersecurity.
