Everything you need to pass the AIGP exam.

Most people preparing for the AIGP exam study the wrong things — or spend too long on the right things in the wrong proportions. This course is precisely matched to the 2026 AIGP Body of Knowledge v2.1, with content weighted to reflect how the exam actually allocates marks. Nothing unexaminable. No effort wasted.
Built and delivered by James Kavanagh, the practitioner who led governance at Microsoft and Amazon - AND who passed the AIGP exam.

Built differently. For good reason.

Three things that make this course the most thorough AIGP preparation available.

Practitioner-built. Practitioner-delivered.

Every video is presented by James Kavanagh, who led AI governance at Microsoft and Amazon, and who has passed the AIGP exam himself.

Weighted to reflect how the exam allocates marks.

Most preparation treats every topic equally. This course doesn't - content is weighted so you spend your time where it counts on exam day.

Four ways to study, on your schedule.

Watch the video. Read the written content. Listen to the audio version. Ask questions directly. Every lesson, every format, your choice.
Honestly, it's the most practical and useful real-life AIGP course I've found. I have a point of reference — I've tried different ones. Really appreciated the generosity in knowledge sharing.

Frequently asked questions

Is this an official IAPP course?

No, and we think that's an advantage. You get up-to-date practitioner-built preparation, not generic training. It's from someone who's passed the course, mentored team members & colleagues through the course, teaches and implements practical AI governance on a daily basis. 

Is US$99 really enough for quality exam prep?

117 videos, 700+ questions, 5 practice exams, 850+ prompt cards, community forum access. Built and delivered by the practitioner who led AI governance and engineering at Microsoft and Amazon. The quality speaks for itself.

Can I try before I buy?

Yes. Domain I-A is completely free and open. Register, try it out, see the style, see the depth. No payment required.

How long do I have access?

Lifetime access. Study at your own pace. Come back to revise whenever you need to.

What if I want more than exam prep?

We recommend the US$249 bundle: Exam Prep + Track 1 of the Practitioner Program. They're designed as companions, not a sequence. Theory and practice, uniquely better together.

Who is James Kavanagh?

James is the former AWS AI Governance Lead who led AI governance and engineering at Microsoft and Amazon. His team achieved the first ISO 42001 certification of any global cloud service provider. He passed the AIGP exam and has 20+ years of governance experience across 25 countries. Every video is presented by James, a real human practitioner - and, you can reach him directly through the AI Career Pro community forum. He'll answer any and all questions our students ask. 

What if I've already started studying with another course?

This course is designed to work standalone or alongside other preparation. Many students use it to fill gaps, sharpen their practice questions, or get a second perspective. At US$99, it's a low-risk addition to whatever you're already doing.

How current is the content?

Every video is written to match precisely the 2026 AIGP Body of Knowledge (BOK) v2.1 — the current exam specification. When the BOK updates, or we get feedback or questions, then the course is updated.  

Do I need any prior experience in AI governance?

No. The course starts from the foundations and builds progressively. It's designed for professionals preparing for the AIGP exam whether you're new to AI governance or looking to formalise existing experience. You may find the case studies and practical grounding in the Practitioner Program will help if you're very new to this field.

What's the difference between the Exam Preparation Course and the Practitioner Program? 

The Exam Prep Course gives you the theory and preparation to pass the AIGP exam. The AI Governance Practitioner Program teaches you to apply AI governance in practice - hands-on skills, case studies, templates, and tools. They're companions, not a sequence. The US$249 bundle gives you both.
