Diagnostic
A calibrated baseline test, taken solo, that maps exactly where you stand across ethical AI, data quality for AI, and AI fundamentals before you study anything.
About the SF AI Associate exam
The Salesforce Certified AI Associate exam validated a foundational understanding of AI in a CRM context: AI fundamentals, AI capabilities in Salesforce, the ethics of AI (the largest section at 39%) and the data that AI depends on (36%). It is now retired. Salesforce stopped delivering the exam on 1 May 2025 and retired the credential on 2 February 2026, so it can no longer be earned and holders see it marked Retired. The final outline had 40 multiple-choice/multiple-select questions in 70 minutes with a 65% passing score. Salesforce names no direct successor and points AI learners to the Agentforce Specialist exam and Agentblazer Status. This page is for people learning the foundations or preparing for Agentforce. Edureify's plan budgets roughly 21–27 hours for the material.
The Edureify Readiness System
Edureify runs on one loop: a Diagnostic maps exactly where you stand across ethical AI, data quality for AI, and AI fundamentals before you study anything, an adaptive Roadmap turns that into a day-by-day plan weighted toward your actual gaps, a self-paced Practice Loop of questions, mock exams, and spaced review builds mastery topic by topic, and an Intervention layer steps in the moment your progress stalls. Every session feeds back into a live Readiness Score that predicts when you'll be exam-ready and names the specific topics still holding you back — not a completion percentage frozen at the end of a course.
Adaptive roadmap
A day-by-day plan built from your diagnostic and rebuilt automatically as you progress — weighted toward your actual gaps, not a generic syllabus.
Practice loop
Practice questions, mock exams, and spaced-repetition review, self-paced, with mastery tracked across ethical AI, data quality for AI, and AI fundamentals.
Readiness prediction
A live score with a predicted ready-by date and the specific topics still dragging it down, recalculated after every session.
Certifying a team for SF AI Associate, not just yourself?
Edureify also runs as a team platform for L&D leaders: every team member gets the same self-paced diagnostic-to-readiness loop, and managers get a live dashboard showing each person's Readiness Score, predicted ready-by date, and what's specifically holding them back — plus a portfolio view for reporting on SF AI Associate readiness across the whole team.
How Focus on Force (now part of K2 University) approaches SF AI Associate prep
Focus on Force, now part of K2 University, built its AI Associate Certification Practice Exams in its usual format: timed practice exams and topic questions with explanations, $24, and 12 months of access with retakes and updates. Its page last showed an April 2025 update.
The AI Associate exam stopped on 1 May 2025 and the credential retired on 2 February 2026, so current availability of this product is uncertain and it no longer leads to a certification. Its section feedback highlights weak topics, but we found no baseline diagnostic, readiness score or adaptive plan.
Edureify treats the retired outline as a foundation course. Its Diagnostic checks your understanding of ethical AI, data quality for AI and AI fundamentals, and the Readiness Score measures mastery as a step toward the Agentforce Specialist exam.

Questions people ask before choosing
Can I still take the SF AI Associate exam?
No. Delivery ended on 1 May 2025 and the credential was retired on 2 February 2026.
Is Focus on Force's AI Associate product still on sale?
Its page still showed a $24 price and an April 2025 update when checked, but because the exam is retired, confirm availability with K2 University before buying.
What should I study after the AI Associate material?
Salesforce points AI learners to the Agentforce Specialist exam and Agentblazer Status; the AI Associate topics are a sensible foundation for both.
Edureify vs Focus on Force (now part of K2 University): which is right for you?
Focus on Force makes sense only if you specifically want inexpensive exam-style questions on the old AI Associate outline and can confirm the product is still sold.
Edureify makes more sense if you want to measure and build the AI foundations that the retired exam covered, with a roadmap and tutor, before moving on to Agentforce.
Neither leads to an AI Associate certificate any more, so judge them on how well they teach the material you still need.
