EU AI Act Compliance Certification

The EU AI Act Compliance Certification is a free intermediate-level, 20-minute skill test from Science of Apps. It tests EU AI Act compliance — the regulation's scope and risk-based classification, prohibited AI practices and transparency duties, obligations for high-risk AI providers and deployers, and rules for general-purpose AI models, governance and penalties. Score 70% or more on its 20 questions to earn a verifiable EU AI Act Compliance certificate (SOA-EAAC). Every question is based on published standards and research — including EU Artificial Intelligence Act (European Union), ISO/IEC 42001: AI management systems (ISO) — and each answer is explained with its source.

Read the four skill areas on this page, then take the 20-minute test online — no fee, course or sign-up. You see every answer explained when you finish. Score 70% or more and you get a EU AI Act Compliance certificate straight away, on screen, as a PDF and by email, with a credential ID anyone can verify.

Yes. The questions are original scenarios written by Science of Apps, and each one is based on a public source you can read: EU Artificial Intelligence Act (European Union); ISO/IEC 42001: AI management systems (ISO). The source is shown under each question and linked in the answer review. Science of Apps doesn't copy questions from other tests.

Four skill areas with five questions each, drawn from a bank of 10 per area so a retake brings new questions: Scope and Risk Classification (Who the Act applies to, Risk tiers and Exemptions); Prohibited Practices and Transparency (Article 5 prohibitions, Transparency obligations and AI literacy); High-Risk AI Obligations (Provider requirements, Deployer duties and Conformity and monitoring); General-Purpose AI, Governance and Penalties (GPAI model obligations, Systemic risk and Enforcement and penalties). Every question is an original scenario based on a published standard, official documentation or research, named under the question.

AI governance lead, Compliance officer, Privacy or legal counsel, AI product manager and Risk manager. It suits anyone who wants a quick, verifiable way to show EU AI Act Compliance skills, from students and career switchers to experienced professionals.
