Automation-risk modeling on O*NET 30.2 and U.S. Census data across 3,181 US counties.
Why trust AWG
We set the standard. We don't sell the fix.
AWG is a public-benefit corporation, not a consulting firm. We run the assessment, define the standard, and issue the credential — but we never sell you the implementation. That work goes to vetted partners, and only if you choose it.
Because our revenue comes from certification and the partner network — never from your project — the assessment has nothing to upsell. Honest counsel is the product.
Independent by charter
Our PBC purpose binds us to workforce-aligned outcomes, not billable hours.
No conflict of interest
We never bid on the work we recommend.
Publicly verifiable
Every credential can be looked up and confirmed by anyone.

Take the free assessment to understand your AI exposure and your team's readiness. When you're ready for more, we'll help you find the right next step. No pressure.
