We bring AI governance, engineering, and workforce skills together

True CyberChampion is a Washington, DC-area artificial intelligence and cybersecurity advisory, engineering, and training firm. We help government agencies, defense contractors, businesses, and regulated organizations adopt AI responsibly, build practical solutions, and develop the workforce skills needed to succeed.

We combine scientific research, hands-on engineering, cybersecurity and regulatory expertise, executive advisory, and adult education to help organizations move from policy and strategy to implementation and everyday practice.

We are scientists, engineers, researchers, and educators who understand that technology alone does not solve business problems. Organizations need sound governance, solutions that work, and people who know how to use them. Our approach is practical, customized, and focused on results.

AI engineering, where building meets proof

Our scientists and engineers design, build, test and field AI systems that solve defined problems. We pair every build with independent evaluation, so you can show what works, how well, and why it is safe to deploy.

From feasibility studies and rapid prototypes to production systems in cloud, hybrid or restricted environments, we bring research rigor and security discipline to every stage.

Customized training

Built on the Capability Proof System™

We do not start with a generic course catalog. Every program follows our methodology: six stages and four integrated frameworks that turn your AI policy into everyday practice, role by role, and prove the change. Explore our full methodology.

Seven failure modes

Why awareness training does not change work

We see seven recurring failure modes. Each one has a known cause in the research, and each one maps to a specific design choice in our system. Select any row to fix it.

1Generic contentOne deck for everyone, with examples about marketing emails and meal plansSkills transfer when practice resembles the job. Generic examples resemble nobody’s job.Work-TwinTM scenarios built from each role’s real tasks

All seven fixed. That is the Capability Proof System: every failure of awareness training answered by a design choice.

Our answer

The Capability Proof SystemTM: six stages, four integrated frameworks

From awareness to evidence. Every engagement moves through six stages in sequence, each ending with a quality check, while four integrated framework components run in parallel underneath. Select a stage to see how it works and which frameworks are at work.

Why our methodology is unique

How our training methodology differs from other AI training

VP, AI Strategy and Workforce Development

Dr. Beza holds a Doctor of Engineering in Cyber Analytics and Artificial Intelligence from The George Washington University and brings 20 years of technology experience across the federal government, big tech and consulting. Today he helps federal agencies adopt AI safely: developing AI enablement strategies, building role-based training, and designing AI solutions for real operational challenges. He also advises businesses that want to deploy AI safely and responsibly.

His strength is working both sides of the table. He explains complex technical concepts in plain terms to leaders and managers, and translates strategic priorities and business concerns into clear direction for technical teams.

  • Federal AI enablementAt PBGC, Dr. Beza developed an AI enablement strategy and is implementing an AI adoption drive. It includes role-based training and identifying problems AI can solve to improve the accuracy and standardization of work products while saving time and cost.
  • ISACA training providerAs an ISACA training provider, we have trained auditors, executives, managers, IT leaders and professionals in many other roles, from a wide range of companies, on AI governance, risk, and compliance.
  • Contributions to AI adoption and skills developmentFrameworks and platforms we built and share with the wider industry.

Our commitment: training that changes how people work

Our goal is not simply to teach employees about AI. It is to help them use AI effectively, securely, and confidently within the boundaries established by their organization.

We focus on practical learning, relevant workplace scenarios, and skills that employees can apply immediately.
