We held an exclusive information session detailing the landmark partnership between NAAIC and EC-Council. This collaboration was specifically designed to empower community college faculty with the applied resources needed to bridge the gap between classroom learning and the U.S. AI talent pipeline.

In this session, we explored the “Adopt. Defend. Govern.” (A.D.G.) framework and how it provided a roadmap for career-ready AI education.

What Was Covered:

We provided a deep dive into the institutional benefits available to NAAIC members, including:

  • The Free Academia Partnership Model: Learn how to access eCourseware, lesson plans, LMS course shells, labs, and exam prep all at no cost to faculty.
  • Four High-Demand Certification Pathways: Get an inside look at the credentials shaping the industry:
    • Artificial Intelligence Essentials (AIE)
    • Certified AI Program Manager (CAIPM)
    • Certified Offensive AI Security Professional (COASP)
    • Certified Responsible AI Governance and Ethics (CRAGE)
  • Faculty Training Opportunities: We will announce specific dates and registration details for upcoming training sessions.
