The Standard · Function
Strategy and Leadership
The Standard names 9 skills in Strategy and Leadership. You can be examined on one of them, or on the function as a whole.
A badge names one skill: “Applied AI Badge: Project Planning”. The two titles name the function: “Applied AI Specialist (Strategy and Leadership)”. Learn either any way you like; no book or course is required.
