What is the Production-Grade AI Audit Readiness course about?

Teams invest heavily in AI development only to face delays or rejection during compliance review. Without a structured, production-grade approach to documentation, traceability, and policy alignment, even mature systems fail audit thresholds. This creates cost overruns, erodes stakeholder trust, and slows public-sector innovation.
