- Certificate of Completion
- Self-paced, online
- Professional technology education
AI in a regulated or contractually exposed business is a governance question before it is a technical one. This program is for the people who have to answer for how it is used.
It covers data boundaries, approval design, record-keeping and risk assessment — and how to write a policy people can actually follow, rather than a document nobody reads.
- Set clear boundaries for what AI may see and store
- Design approval points with named accountability
- Assess risk without either panic or denial
- Write an AI policy people follow
- Keep records that stand up to a question later
- No technical background required
- Responsibility for how AI is used in your organisation
Short final assessment plus a policy outline exercise.

Common questions.
Is this legal advice?
No. It teaches the governance structure — boundaries, approvals, records and policy — so that the questions you take to counsel are the right ones.
Does it cover data protection?
It covers data protection as it applies to AI use: what data may be processed, where it goes, how long it is kept and what must be recorded.
