When will the Azure AI Engineer Associate certification materials and exam be updated to reflect the recent Microsoft Foundry changes?

I’d like to take the Azure AI Engineer Associate exam for the homonymous certification, but I noticed the following note on the certification page: “Azure AI Foundry is now Microsoft Foundry. We are in the process of updating the exam and all associated materials.”
Could you please share the expected timeline for completing these updates? It would help us plan our preparation and avoid any unexpected changes while studying.

I can understand why you're concerned about the timing for the updates related to the Azure AI Engineer Associate certification, especially with the changes from Azure AI Foundry to Microsoft Foundry.
Based on recent announcements, the certification exam (along with its materials) is set to be updated soon, but exact timelines for the release aren't specified in the provided documentation. However, the certification updates are aimed to be in sync with the rollout of new product features.
While I can't provide a precise date, here’s what I recommend:
- Keep an eye on the official Microsoft certification updates page, as that's where you'll find the most current information.
- Also, consider checking the relevant sections on the Microsoft Partner website for any announcements or insights related to the updates: Microsoft Partner Network Programs.

The key place to check is the study guide https://dori-uw-1.kuma-moon.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/resources/study-guides/ai-102
You should also follow https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/category/skills-hub/blog/skills-hub-blog for all certification and exam announcements

These take a lot longer than you might anticipate.
