AI risk assessments that keep changing due to unclear standards and cross-team misalignment

The situation this course is for

Program leads in fast-scaling AI orgs spend cycles reconciling differing interpretations of fairness, transparency, and accountability, often redoing work when new guidance drops or leadership requests a different lens.

Who this is for

Senior Program Manager in Big Tech leading AI governance, compliance, or cross-functional risk initiatives with exposure to regulatory expectations and engineering delivery timelines

Who this is not for

Individual contributors not involved in cross-functional rollout, entry-level PMs, or those focused solely on model development without governance scope

What you walk away with

  • Map any AI use case to relevant global frameworks (NIST AI RMF, OECD Principles, EU AI Act tiers) in under 90 minutes
  • Produce a standardized AI governance package that survives team churn and leadership changes
  • Lock down version-controlled control mappings so audits don’t restart from zero
  • Lead alignment sessions between engineering, legal, and policy using shared decision logs
  • Anticipate regulator follow-ups by embedding traceability from policy rule to implementation proof
