CompTIA has announced the launch of its new learning and certification programs, the Essentials and Expansion series, designed to enhance and maintain AI skills. The series focuses on AI skills competencies in four AI tech career areas and roles: software development, cybersecurity, systems operations (SysOps), and data analytics, as well as two job roles: prompt engineering and AI systems architecture.
The Essentials Series, set to be released in July 2024, is applicable to any occupation, including both tech-specific positions and adjacent occupations that rely on technology. It will cover the landscape of AI, available AI tools and best practices for using them, AI challenges and solutions, the benefits of AI for creativity and work enhancement, and the future implications of AI.
