Generative AI for Project Managers Specialization is a paid intermediate course from IBM, online. It's a paid subscription; the price is on the provider's page. It ends with a certificate.
Suits project managers who want a structured route from generative AI basics to prompting and lifecycle work such as charters and work breakdown structures. At about 27 hours across three courses, it goes deeper than most short PM options. The catch: it needs a Coursera subscription, the FAQ says it can't be taken free (financial aid is available), and the price isn't listed here yet. For a free taster first, try Talking to AI: Prompt Engineering for Project Managers.
