Authorized Training Partners (ATP)

Connect training programs with AI governance learning themes

This page provides a high-level orientation to how training providers, institutions and organizations may align learning programs with IIAIG’s AI governance themes through the Authorized Training Partner (ATP) concept. It describes an optional, conceptual framework for collaboration — not accreditation, certification or approval.

ATP orientation
  • Provides a conceptual framework for training alignment.
  • Does not represent accreditation, endorsement or regulatory approval.
  • Builds shared language for training providers supporting AI governance learning.
Why ATP ATP program models
Purpose

Why training providers explore the ATP concept

Training providers and learning organizations may choose to align with AI governance themes to support learners, enterprises and institutions that are building governance-aware capability. ATP provides shared orientation, not prescriptive rules.

Shared terminology

ATP alignment helps ensure that training programs use consistent AI governance terminology derived from IIAIG’s conceptual orientation.

Structured learning

Providers may organize learning pathways that connect foundational, practitioner and leadership-level perspectives in a coherent manner.

Flexibility for providers

ATP is intentionally flexible and recognizes that each provider has its own delivery model, academic policies, quality controls and operational structures.

ATP is an orientation framework — it does not replace institutional policies, accreditation requirements or regulatory frameworks.

Formats

Illustrative ATP program models

Training partners can interpret IIAIG’s certification pathway (CGA → CGP → CAGL) to design aligned conceptual, applied or leadership-level learning experiences. These models are illustrative only.

Foundational AI governance
  • Introductory sessions building AI governance awareness.
  • Conceptual orientation for students, early-career or cross-disciplinary learners.
  • May align with CGA-level foundational themes.
Applied governance practice
  • Workshops connecting governance themes to AI-enabled projects.
  • Role-aware activities for data, product, engineering, risk and compliance teams.
  • May align with CGP-level applied themes.
Leadership & oversight
  • Governance-oriented conversations for senior leaders and committees.
  • Case or scenario discussions exploring oversight considerations.
  • May align with CAGL-level leadership themes.

Delivery format, pedagogy, assessment and recognition are defined by each training provider.

Stakeholders

Who ATP programs may be relevant for

Training providers often engage diverse learner groups. ATP orientation helps maintain consistency across varying backgrounds.

Students
Students & early-career learners

Learners seeking structured exposure to AI governance concepts in academic or professional settings.

CGA orientation
Professionals
Professionals & practitioners

Individuals working with AI, risk, compliance, product, technology or operations.

CGP orientation
Leadership
Leaders & committees

Senior leaders and oversight forums engaging with AI-related governance decisions.

CAGL orientation
Organizations
Corporate learning teams

L&D teams designing governance-aware capability-building programs.

Enterprise programs
Implementation

How training providers may interpret ATP orientation

Implementation depends entirely on a provider’s existing programs, faculty, accreditation pathways and delivery methods. The points below reflect typical considerations.

Program review

Identify where existing content aligns with conceptual, applied or leadership-level governance themes.

Curriculum adaptation

Map internal learning modules to foundational, practitioner or leadership-oriented governance concepts.

Delivery approach

Choose delivery models that suit local pedagogy — instructor-led, blended, asynchronous or workshop-based.

Providers maintain autonomy over academic quality, delivery, recognition and program operations.

Summary

ATP as a flexible orientation framework

The ATP concept enables providers to align their learning programs with AI governance themes in a structured yet flexible way. It supports consistency in language and orientation without imposing uniform design.

Next steps

Exploring partnership conversations

Providers often begin by mapping their current training programs and identifying where AI governance concepts already appear. This supports informed discussions about orientation and alignment.
