Dear learner,

The three biggest cloud providers all made the same move within weeks of each other: new AI-focused certifications. Here's what changed.

1. AWS Certified AI Business Strategist (AIB-C01) — a genuinely new kind of cert

AWS just launched its first certification built around business judgment instead of code. No coding, no console, no prior AWS certs. It's for the people who decide where AI gets used: PMs, consultants, marketers, business leads.

→ Beta now at $50 (half the $100 standard price)
→ Certify before Feb 15, 2027 for an exclusive Early Adopter badge

We broke down the domains, who it's for, and how to prep → AIB-C01 Exam Overview

2. Google Cloud Professional Agentic Architect — built for the agentic AI wave

Google's new professional-level cert for building, deploying, securing, and governing production agentic AI on Google Cloud.

→ Beta open till Sept 30 — $120 (40% off the $200 price)
→ ~80 questions / 3 hours, plus hands-on labs (you pass both to certify)
→ No prerequisites

3. Microsoft Power Platform Developer Associate — PL-400 becomes AB-400

Microsoft is refreshing its Power Platform developer cert around generative AI, agents, and Copilot. Same certification name, new exam.

→ AB-400 goes live Oct 16 (registration open now)
→ PL-400 registration closes Oct 16 — already registered? You can still take it through Oct 30

We're building prep for all three courses right now. We will let you know through email, the moment it drops. Keep watching emails from Whizlabs.
