MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
I am Himanshu Jha. I have spent more than twenty years in governance, risk, compliance and audit, including hands-on data security and generative AI governance inside a regulated Canadian payments company. That means the frameworks in this course are not theory to me. I have had to operationalise them under real regulatory scrutiny.
I hold the AAIR credential myself, along with the other three ISACA and IAPP AI certifications: AAISM, AIGP and AAIA. Alongside CISA, CISM, CRISC, CISSP, CCSP, CDPSE, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor and CFE.
I wrote every module, every study guide and every practice question in this program myself. You are learning from one person, with one way of explaining things, all the way through.

My goal was to effectively learn and absorb the material of the program in order to gain a strong foundation about managing the risks of AI. The program structured the material in a way that made it easier to understand, and it allowed me to retain the information. Of course, one of the main goal was to pass the exam at the first attempt.
The videos and the questions were invaluable. The structure of the information also aided in the understanding of the frameworks and details.
I would recommend the course to cybersecurity professionals who want to gain an advantage in understanding how AI increases the risks to an organization and want to learn about the various considerations in managing that risk.
Lester Chng
Senior Cybersecurity Advisor (Canada)
Before joining the AAISM Success Blueprint, my goal was to build a stronger foundation in AI security as I shifted my focus from traditional security to AI-specific risk.
What I found most valuable was the blend of videos and practice questions; the program broke down complex concepts in an easy-to-absorb way and reinforced the material through application.
By the end of the program, I felt genuinely prepared and confident walking into the exam, which I’m proud to say I passed.
I’d recommend the AAISM Success Blueprint to any security or governance professional looking to expand into AI risk and assurance with clarity and confidence.

Shivakumaar Jagadeeshan
IAM Lead, Cybersecurity (Melbourne, Australia)
As a Senior Director, my goal was to build a structured, exam-ready foundation in AI security management so I could confidently lead AI security programs within my organization. While my other credentials gave me strong grounding in security governance and program delivery, I wanted a focused resource that specifically addressed the AAISM domains, one that would help me bridge the gap between general cybersecurity leadership and the AI-specific risk, governance, and compliance knowledge the role increasingly demands.
The study guides and mind maps were genuinely invaluable, especially during last-minute preparation, they helped me quickly capture the essence of each domain without having to re-read entire modules, making my revision sessions sharp and targeted. Beyond the certification itself, I now have a clearer, more actionable framework for governing and securing AI systems at the enterprise level, which is exactly what I needed in my role. I would strongly recommend this program to any professional who wants to lead AI security initiatives with credibility and depth.

John Enoch
AI Transformation Lead, Google (Sweden)
My goal was to structure my knowledge around AI auditing and governance and to prepare confidently for the AAIA exam, building on my existing background in audit, risk, and compliance.
The on-demand course was very well structured, which made the material easy to follow and logically connected. I particularly liked the slide decks (Study Notes) that summarised the content in clear bullet points and highlighted key takeaways, as well as the narrative (Study Guides) PDFs that explained the topics in more depth. Together, these materials made complex concepts much easier to understand and retain.
I would recommend the AAIA Success Blueprint not only to those preparing for the AAIA exam, but also to anyone who wants to genuinely learn and build a solid understanding of AI auditing and even AI governance, especially professionals in audit, risk, compliance, and related fields in a structured manner.

Vijeesh Kumar
Digital Audit Manager (UK)
I didn't just want to pass the AIGP exam, I wanted to come away with a real understanding of the foundational knowledge behind AI governance. Going in, I was a little nervous. It had been six years since my last certification exam, and life looks different now with a young family, so finding the time and headspace to study was a real concern.
The AIGP course from Sutra Academy gave me exactly the structure I needed. The lessons were clear, practical, and easy to follow, which made complex AI governance topics feel much more manageable.
Himanshu made himself genuinely available to answer my questions, which put me at ease whenever the material felt overwhelming. The mind maps were the real standout. In the week before the exam, they pulled everything together and helped me quickly connect important concepts across the different domains.
By exam day I felt prepared, and I not only passed but walked away with a solid foundation in AI governance. Himanshu's teaching style is simple, practical, and very learner-friendly, which made the whole preparation experience much smoother. I'd recommend Sutra Academy to anyone preparing for the AIGP exam.
Trecia Knight
Senior InfoSec Consultant (Canada)
AIGP Certified User Review
Whole AAIA course from Sutra's Academy is a valuable resource. Most impactful for my preparation were the interactive videos, practice exams and study guides.
Although there is no single source of preparation can guarantee the successful passing of the exam in first attempt but I found the Sutra Academy course's preparation guides and sample exams assisted me with the detailed understanding of the concepts and confidence building.
I highly recommend this course material to develop confidence and capability to apply the conceptual knowledge into the scenario based questions.
Rakesh G
Senior Manager – Tech Control Assurance (Melbourne, Australia)
AAIA Success Blueprint by Himanshu Sir and team of Sutra Academy is very well designed and aligned with the official AAIA course structure and expectations.

I would strongly recommend this program to serious information assurance professionals who want a focused, exam-oriented, and strategically designed preparation approach.
