One ecosystem of applied AI
Where expertise meets the intelligence of tomorrow.
From a child's first encounter with AI to a career rebuilt around it — IAAA is the applied-AI institute at the center of a broader ecosystem of AI products we are building. One discipline: not just learning about AI, but learning to actually use it, at whatever stage you are at. Real products, real practice — not theory.
The Three Pillars
Three paths to AI-era authority.
IAAA is organised around three permanent domains of practice. Each is a hall you enter, not a product you buy. What you find inside evolves. The architecture does not.
The Analytical Canon
Proven knowledge. Elite delivery. Four progressive tracks every serious analytical professional can take — from AI fluency, to applied systems, to deployment, to responsible leadership.
- Foundational Track
- Applied Track
- Engineering Track
- Leadership Track
The Applied Intelligence Method
Your domain expertise + AI capability = a rare combination. Learn the methods, not the hype. Built for your actual work, tested in real organisations, documented as repeatable frameworks.
- IAAA Vantage — AIGP Exam Prep
- IAAA Fast Fingers
- IAAA Junior Academy & Young Minds
The Authority Standard
A future IAAA credential framework for applied AI professionals — in development. Not a certificate for attendance. Evidence of judgement, application, and responsible practice.
- What it will assess
- How it will work
- The pathway from Pillar I to III
- Currently in development
Built in the open
This is not a roadmap. It is a workshop.
IAAA is not built behind closed doors and unveiled someday. It is built one real thing at a time, in public — tested, then shipped. Here is what has just walked out the door.
IAAA Fast Fingers
A gamified touch-typing tutor for kids — levels, badges, bonus games, and an IAAA certificate to earn.
The real skill this builds is not typing speed — it is sustained focus. The same habit of attention a child will need to read, write, code, and work alongside AI for the rest of their life.
IAAA Vantage
An adaptive exam-prep platform for the IAPP's AI Governance Professional (AIGP) certification — tracking real mastery through spaced repetition, not just questions clicked through.
AI governance is becoming one of the fastest-growing corners of the AI industry. Vantage is built to expose exactly where a candidate's understanding breaks — before the real exam does.
Vantage is an independent study tool — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by IAPP.
A note from the founder.
In June 2026, I saw a gap nobody was filling: real, practical AI capability — not theory, not generic courses — for people at every stage, from a child meeting AI for the first time to a professional rebuilding a career around it. So I built it.
I spent 25 years in Program and Project Management for the Banking Domain. I led automation programs, built communities of practice, mentored teams, and navigated the complexity that only comes from doing the work at scale. I know what it means to have expertise that organisations depend on — and I know what it feels like when that expertise is taken for granted.
IAAA is being built the same way I built my career: one rigorous framework at a time, one real conversation at a time, one proof point at a time. It is one part of a broader ecosystem of AI products I am building — and if you are trying to figure out where AI actually fits, at whatever stage you are at, this is for you.
Your expertise does not expire. It compounds.
The professionals who thrive in the AI era will not be those who learned AI fastest. They will be those who knew their domain deepest — and had the courage to adapt.
