After this course you can set up AI governance that goes beyond statements of intent: you assess the risks of individual AI systems, establish policies and controls based on the NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001, review third-party providers and plan testing, audits and incident response. The course suits you if you work in compliance, risk management, data protection, information security or internal audit, or carry responsibility for the use of AI as a manager.
