Overview

As AI deployment accelerates across organisations, the regulatory and reputational risks grow exponentially. The EU AI Act — the world's first comprehensive AI regulation — introduces binding requirements for high-risk AI systems with penalties up to €35M or 7% of global turnover. The UAE and Saudi Arabia have issued national AI ethics guidelines. The NIST AI Risk Management Framework provides a structured approach to AI risk governance. This programme equips leaders, legal teams, compliance officers, and AI project owners with practical frameworks to assess AI systems for fairness, transparency, accountability, and privacy — and to embed responsible AI practices into the organisational governance structure. Participants leave with a draft AI governance policy, an AI risk register, and an AI ethics review process tailored to their organisation.

Course Objectives

Apply the EU AI Act risk classification to organisational AI systems.
Implement the NIST AI Risk Management Framework for AI governance.
Design an AI usage policy covering data protection, ethics, and accountability.
Build an AI risk register identifying and rating organisational AI risks.
Establish an AI ethics review process for AI projects and procurements.

Requirements

Senior managers, legal and compliance professionals, AI project owners, and data governance leads. No technical background required.
Participants should bring their organisation\'s current AI usage policy (if any) for review.

Why This Course?

The EU AI Act Is Law. Is Your Organisation Ready?

AI regulation is no longer theoretical — the EU AI Act carries penalties up to €35M or 7% of global turnover. National AI ethics guidelines are being enforced across the GCC. Organisations that ignore AI governance face regulatory, reputational, and legal risks that can dwarf any AI benefit. This programme gives you the frameworks and tools to govern AI responsibly and compliantly.
