New Certification for architects of agentic AI business solutions
Great news, it seems like a certification you absolutely must have! What I don't understand is that the prerequisites for applying are all Dynamics or Power Apps certifications, and no other relevant certifications such as AI-102 (Azure AI Engineer Associate), which make more sense in my opinion.
We hope the team will consider this so that we can take the exam in Beta 💪
The exam requires relatively deep knowledge of the AI and Copilot features in the Dynamics 365 apps as well as all the aspects of building agents with Copilot Studio and the Power Platform. It also requires knowledge of how you can use Azure AI Foundry models in Power Platform and how to architect multi-agent solutions that encompass Copilot Studio and AI Foundry.
I agree that Azure AI Engineer is a very useful certification for this new certification and I agree with you that is could also be a pre-requisite, but this certification is under the AI Business Solutions area https://partner.microsoft.com/en-us/explore/solution-areas and Microsoft don't tend to mix certifications between the areas.
