According to the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Survey, 86% of employers expect artificial intelligence (AI) and information processing technologies to significantly impact their business by 2030. However, realizing this potential faces a major challenge: the shortage of skills needed to support its integration. Nearly half of global executives identify this as the top barrier to adoption, followed by lack of leadership vision and high costs. In response, 77% of employers plan to upskill or reskill their workforce by 2030, while many also aim to hire AI-proficient talent and reorient business models. Yet, alongside opportunity, there is disruption: 41% of organizations expect to reduce staff as AI capabilities evolve. 

Amid the accelerating shift toward AI-driven operations, the Functional Areas Enablement Institute (FAEI)—a research-driven entity within The KPI Institute ecosystem dedicated to enhancing operational efficiency across key functional areas—has developed the Certified AI Enablement Professional course in partnership with The KPI Institute. This course is designed to meet the increasing demand for professionals skilled at applying AI technologies, especially natural language processing (NLP). It empowers them to effectively engage with AI systems, leverage foundation models, and implement AI strategies aligned with organizational goals. By fostering AI literacy and cultural readiness, the course aims to drive sustainable growth in AI-enabled enterprises. 

The Certified AI Enablement Professional course stands apart from other AI training programs by leveraging FAEI’s proprietary AI Enablement Framework, which offers a systematic approach that guides organizations from early-stage readiness to full integration across the business. The framework covers critical components such as the strategy roadmap, governance, performance metrics and analytics, maintenance mechanisms, and capacity building. At its core, this course supports the alignment of technology with goals, resources, and talent. This approach allows businesses to optimize AI applications, navigate potential challenges, and deliver greater value, all with the goal of driving cost savings through higher efficiency and productivity. 

Offered by maentae, a premier provider of transformative learning experiences, the Certified AI Enablement Professional course arms participants with practical knowledge in areas such as NLP, prompt engineering, and AI deployment, complemented by access to handbooks, templates, and implementation toolkits. The course’s modular structure spans 10 agendas, from fundamentals to advanced practices, and is delivered through a flexible three-stage learning process: pre-course preparation, in-person or online training, and post-course application.
