COMMON QUESTIONS · HONEST ANSWERS

Before you start.

Learning format, access, payment and optional certification.

01

BEFORE YOU BUY

Is it for me?

Q 00

Do I need CTFL (Foundation Level) before this?

You need basic QA knowledge, not a certificate, to take this course. CTFL is required only if you choose to take the separate official ISTQB CT-AI exam.

Q 01

I'm a junior QA. Will I understand this?

The course assumes you know functional testing, test cases and defect tracking. Machine-learning experience is not required. If these QA basics are new to you, learn them first; this course does not train you for a QA role from scratch.

Q 02

I've been in QA for 10+ years. Is this too basic?

The focus is on AI-specific questions: data quality, model errors and testing methods. Check the curriculum for topics you want to understand more deeply.

Q 03

Do I need to code?

No coding is required. You study how to assess model behaviour and choose tests; building or training your own model is outside the course.

Q 04

How can I try the course?

The first 12 lectures, their quizzes and 3 questions a day to Kai are free. Sign in to save progress; no payment card is needed. Try the introductory lessons before choosing full access.

02

FORMAT & PACE

How does it actually work?

Q 05

Do I have to watch one lecture per day?

No daily quota. Lectures open in order: complete the previous lecture and try its quiz; any result counts. Return to studied material during your access period.

Q 06

How long are the lectures?

5–15 minutes each. The listed durations for the 62 lectures add up to about 8 hours. Allow extra time for quizzes, practice and revision.

Q 07

What's the AI mentor bot?

Kai helps explain course material in the browser and Telegram. Ask by text or voice: 3 questions a day with free access, 10 with full access. Kai’s voice replies are generated with AI.

Q 08

Is there a community?

There is no student group. You study independently with Kai; contact Anastasia through “Write to Nastya” in the app or /contact_nastya in the bot.

03

CERTIFICATION

About the exam.

Q 09

Is the ISTQB CT-AI exam included?

No. This is an independent course in AI-testing theory. Official certification is optional; book and pay for the external exam separately with an exam provider. Check its current price and requirements before booking.

Q 10

Do I get a course completion certificate?

Pass the course’s final 40-question mock with at least 26 correct answers to earn a course certificate with a verification URL. You can share it on LinkedIn. It is separate from ISTQB certification.

Q 11

Will I be ready for the CT-AI exam?

For optional exam preparation, the course includes 300 practice questions, lecture quizzes and a timed 40-question mock. They help identify gaps; completion does not guarantee a pass. The official v1.0 exam uses weighted questions: 31 of 47 points are needed to pass.

v1 · v2

Why does this course teach v1, not the new v2.0 syllabus?

The current course is based on CT-AI v1.0 and teaches data quality, model behaviour and testing methods. It does not claim to cover the new v2.0 syllabus. If certification matters to you, check the version before choosing preparation.

The v1.0 exam is available until 21 April 2027 in English and 21 October 2027 in other languages. An earned v1 certificate does not expire. Official version and exam conditions.

Q 12

What if I don't pass the CT-AI exam?

You can review the course and retake its mock during your 6 months of access. An external exam retake is arranged separately; check the provider’s fees and rules.

04

TECHNICAL

Access & devices.

Q 13

Can I watch on mobile?

Yes, in a mobile browser or Telegram Mini App on a phone or tablet.

Q 14

In which languages?

Course content is in English, Russian and Ukrainian. Bot interface and email subjects also support Polish and Korean (with English fallback for the longer content).

Q 15

How long do I have access?

Full access lasts 6 months from purchase. You can continue and revisit completed lessons during that period.

05

PAYMENT

Money, refunds, taxes.

Q 16

How much is it?

Current price, one payment for 6 months of access; instalments: 3 × monthly. Applicable taxes are calculated at checkout. Current offer and conditions.

Q 17

What's the refund policy?

14-day money-back guarantee. If the course is not for you, write to us within 14 days of your purchase and you get a full refund. No interrogation, no hoops. This sits on top of your legal right of withdrawal under EU law, so you are covered either way. Refunds land within 14 days of your request.

Q 18

Is VAT / tax included?

Prices shown are ex-VAT. VAT calculated at checkout based on your billing country. EU businesses with a VIES-verified VAT number pay zero VAT (reverse charge).

Q 19

Do you offer discounts?

Current launch prices and their dates are shown on the pricing page. Check the checkout total before paying; no additional event discount is promised.

06

TEAMS / B2B

For QA teams.

Q 20

Can my company buy team seats?

Yes - teams train together on the same course. There's no public team price yet: write in through the Teams page and we'll agree the details, including invoicing with VAT.

Q 21

Can we get a pilot before committing?

Yes - we can set up a small pilot first. Use the form on the Teams page and mention you'd like a pilot.

Q 22

Can I "convince my boss" to approve the budget?

The free Convince Your Boss kit helps explain a learning goal and request a budget. Adapt it to your team; any savings calculation is an estimate, not a promised result.
