What is the ISACA AAIA certification?

AAIA (Auditing Artificial Intelligence) is ISACA's credential for auditors and governance professionals who assess AI systems and AI-related risks. It covers AI governance frameworks, AI audit methodology, model risk assessment, and alignment with emerging AI regulations including NIST AI RMF and the EU AI Act.

Who should pursue AI audit certification?

AI audit certification is for IS auditors, internal auditors, and compliance professionals whose organizations are adopting or deploying AI systems. As AI governance requirements emerge from NIST, EU AI Act, and sector regulators, AAIA-credentialed auditors are positioned to lead AI control assessments.

How does AI audit relate to CISA?

AAIA builds on IS audit principles established in CISA but applies them specifically to AI systems. CISA-credentialed practitioners who add AAIA expand their scope to AI governance and model risk — a growing demand area as organizations integrate AI into regulated business processes.

Is AI audit certification relevant for financial services?

Yes. Financial services regulators (OCC, FDIC, Federal Reserve, CFPB) have issued model risk management guidance (SR 11-7) that applies to AI and ML models. AAIA-credentialed practitioners can conduct model risk assessments and AI governance audits that satisfy SR 11-7 requirements.
