General Information
Introduction:
The pace of change today is beyond our imagination. Generative AI is no longer an option but a necessity for survival in the rapidly evolving world.
Recognizing this, the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB) has been preparing a new "Testing with Generative AI Specialist" international certification.
KSTQB has long acknowledged the importance of this topic and has developed a structured yet easy-to-follow knowledge framework—not only for software testing but also for various professional fields—to help individuals effectively integrate Generative AI into their work.
This certification is designed with clear, concise, and essential content to ensure that anyone, regardless of their industry, can quickly learn how to apply Generative AI in their fields before diving into more specialized areas. While software testing is used as an example, learners can use it as a reference to apply Generative AI in their own domains.
After obtaining this certification, candidates may choose to advance to more in-depth ISTQB certifications or apply their knowledge in their respective fields.
This certification is for anyone who has ever wondered, "I need to start using Generative AI to keep up, but where do I even begin?"
