Introduction
The Generative AI Associate Professional (GAAP) is an associate-level certification awarded by the Global Institute of Professional Management Certification (GIPMC). It builds practical knowledge of generative AI: how the models work, how to prompt them, how to apply them to text, images, code and data, and how to use them ethically and securely. GIPMC pitches it at a foundation to intermediate level and keeps it vendor-neutral.
GIPMC aims GAAP at graduates and people early in their careers, analysts and other knowledge workers, IT and digital staff, marketing and content teams, product, operations and support teams, and non-technical professionals who want AI literacy.
BlueMorpho Learning Solutions helps you understand the GAAP requirements, plan your preparation and enroll for the exam. GIPMC conducts the exam and awards the certification.
