AI Work Competency Certification
Everyone says they use AI. This proves you use it well - that you can tell a real finding from a confident one, know what to check before you sign your name to it, and can do the work when the output is wrong.
The assessment
20 questions
per attempt
35 minutes
server-timed
75% to pass
weighted overall
60% Part C floor
plus no critical RAI failure
Three tracks, one standard
Parts A and B are identical whichever track you pick. Only the four Part C work tasks change - so the certificate means the same thing for everyone, on the work they actually do.
Data Analyst
Datasets, SQL, dashboards and findings you have to defend.
Software Engineer
Generated code, tests, migrations and review decisions.
AI Engineer
RAG, evals, structured output, agents and safeguards.
What the 35 minutes look like
Every attempt draws a fresh paper - but always the same number of questions from each competency area, so nobody gets an easier test.
AI Knowledge
What you know about how AI systems behave and where they fail.

You must score at least 60% here, whatever your overall total.
How the written answers are graded
A model reading an essay and returning “8.7 out of 10” is not a grade - it is a guess with a decimal point. So we split the job in two: the AI only observes, and the code scores.
The evaluator reports which specific behaviours it can evidence in your own words. It has no score field to write into. Points then come from a fixed rubric in code, so the same answer always earns the same mark - and the rubric is reviewable, not a black box.
Your answer
Written in your own words, in the time you have.
AI evaluator
Reports only which expected behaviours are evidenced, and which red flags appear.
Deterministic rubric
Code turns those observations into points, using the bank's own signal list.
