AI compliance feels fragmented across teams just as accountability tightens

The situation this course is for

Practitioners in data and supply chain roles are being pulled into AI governance discussions without clear frameworks for cross-functional alignment. The AI Act raises the stakes, but most teams are still reacting, leaving leaders to piece together validation from siloed efforts.

Who this is for

Mid-senior IC in data or analytics at a tech-enabled enterprise, working across data governance, supply chain traceability, and compliance adjacent to AI deployment

Who this is not for

This course is not for policy-only specialists, legal counsel without technical exposure, or engineers working in isolated AI development teams with no cross-domain integration scope

What you walk away with

  • Build validation workflows for AI systems that satisfy compliance and retain technical agility
  • Map data lineage to AI Act high-risk criteria across supply chain decision points
  • Create repeatable artefacts that demonstrate conformity to Article 13 and Annex III classifications
  • Lead cross-functional alignment between data, compliance, and operations without formal authority
  • Anticipate audit questions using real EBA and national enforcer patterns
