The full legal notice.

Status

The Global AI Standards Body ("GAISB™") is a private professional standards organization. GAISB™ is not a government agency, regulator, or accreditation body and does not exercise statutory, supervisory, or licensing authority in any jurisdiction.

GAISB™ is constituted under bylaws (available on request) ratified by the Founding Standards Council. The bylaws are publication pending.

Credential Nature

GAISB certification is a professional certification issued by GAISB™. It is not an occupational license, regulatory authorization, or practice permit and does not confer legal practice rights.

The GAISB credential is issued exclusively by GAISB™ through one official path: the program delivered inside Prompt Atlas, the official GAISB™ community. There is no alternate route. GetAICertified.org and AITeamCert.com are official GAISB™ intake channels operated by GAISB™. Prompt Atlas remains the sole delivery and examination environment. No party outside GAISB™ is authorized to issue the GAISB credential. Credentials offered as "GAISB-equivalent" or "GAISB™-affiliated" by parties other than GAISB™ itself are not authorized and do not constitute the GAISB credential.

Accreditation Posture

GAISB™'s certification programs are developed under principles derived from ISO/IEC 17024 — the international standard for bodies that certify persons. GAISB™ is not currently accredited by any national or international accreditation body.

Application to a recognized accreditation body is sequenced per the accreditation roadmap described in this notice. The posture plan is forward-looking and subject to revision; current accreditation status is the only operative status.

Governance

The GAISB™ Standards Council, Ethics Review Board, and Working Groups are in Charter Phase as of 2026. Governance references on this site reflect the constitutional structure set out in the Bylaws; full seating is scheduled in accordance with the published nomination cycle.

Decisions made during Charter Phase are issued under Founding Charter authority and are re-affirmed by the full Council upon seating. The Founding Charter authority is documented in the Bylaws and is time-limited to the Charter Phase.

Council members serve four-year staggered terms with documented term limits. Conflicts of interest are disclosed publicly per the conflict-of-interest policy in the Bylaws. Council compensation, where any, is documented in the annual transparency disclosure.

Framework Crosswalks

Alignment references to the NIST AI RMF, the EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, the OECD AI Principles, and any other external framework are independent mappings produced by GAISB™. They do not constitute endorsement, certification, affiliation, or adoption by the issuing authorities.

The Framework Crosswalk in the Standards Library provides the methodology, citation list, and per-domain mapping. Crosswalks are updated annually as frameworks revise; superseded versions remain accessible.

Engagement vs. Recognition

References to employer, educator, regulator, or jurisdictional engagement describe GAISB™'s outreach and the Engagement Map. They do not imply formal recognition, endorsement, or delegation of authority by any named entity unless accompanied by a dated, citable instrument from that entity published in the Standards Library.

Formal recognition — by letter, regulation, or framework reference — is listed separately on the dedicated recognition page when and as it is issued, with the originating instrument referenced.

Verification Registry

GAISB credentials are recorded in the GAISB™ Public Verification Registry — a citable, auditable, professionally maintained record of every credential issued. Credentials are issued by the Standards Council, conformant to GAISB Public Verification Registry standards, and are non-transferable. The registry record is the authoritative system of record for credential name, status, renewal standing, and any active sanction.

Verification is open to the public, employers, regulators, and partners at registry.gaisb.org. The registry is operated and maintained by GAISB™ under the governance of the Standards Council. Registry records are permanent; status changes (renewal, sanctions, revocations) are appended as subsequent entries referencing the original issuance, with full timestamp history.

A GAISB credential is a professional certification record issued to and bound to the individual holder, and is non-transferable.

Prompt Atlas

Prompt Atlas is the official GAISB™ candidate community and is the sole delivery environment for the GAISB program. References to Prompt Atlas describe the official route to the credential and its integrated curriculum, builds, capstone, and live cohorts.

Prompt Atlas operates under GAISB™'s governance and does not itself issue the GAISB credential; issuance authority rests with GAISB™. Disputes regarding cohort delivery, examination administration, or capstone defense are handled through GAISB™'s published grievance procedure, which is independent of Prompt Atlas's day-to-day community operations.

Privacy

GAISB™ collects personal data necessary for credential issuance, examination administration, registry maintenance, and renewal / continuing-education tracking. Data handling is governed by the GAISB™ Privacy Policy (publication pending). Holders consent to public listing in the Verification Registry as a condition of certification.

Public registry data includes: holder name, credential ID, credential name, status, capstone deployment status, renewal date, and any active sanction. Personal contact information, examination scores, and disciplinary case files are not public.

Terms of Use

Use of the GAISB™ website, the Public Verification Registry, the API, and the Standards Library is subject to the Terms of Use (publication pending). By accessing these resources, users agree to the Terms.

The GAISB, GAISB™, Prompt Atlas, and Standards Library marks are property of GAISB™. Use of the marks in connection with credential issuance or training delivery requires written authorization from the Standards Council.

IP & Citation

All GAISB™-published documents — including the Common Body of Knowledge, the Code of Professional Conduct, the Job Task Analysis Report, and the Framework Crosswalk — are open for citation under the GAISB™ Citation Policy (publication pending). Attribution is required; modification is not permitted without Council approval.
