A tailored course, built for your situation
Board-Level Generative AI Policy Design for Compliance Officers
Implement governance frameworks that align generative AI strategy with compliance, risk, and board expectations
The situation this course is for
Generative AI is accelerating across enterprises, yet compliance functions are being asked to respond without clear policy blueprints or executive alignment. The gap between technical deployment and regulatory readiness is widening, creating friction in audits, reporting, and board oversight. Professionals need actionable methods to translate compliance requirements into strategic AI governance, not just reactive controls.
Who this is for
Compliance officers, risk leads, and governance professionals in mid-to-large organizations implementing or overseeing generative AI systems in regulated environments.
Who this is not for
This is not for engineers focused on model development, data scientists building AI systems, or entry-level compliance staff without strategic influence. It’s not a technical AI course or a general intro to compliance.
What you walk away with
- Design board-ready generative AI policies aligned with regulatory expectations
- Classify and tier AI use cases by compliance risk and governance need
- Integrate AI policy with existing compliance, audit, and risk management frameworks
- Lead cross-functional alignment between legal, security, data, and executive teams
- Produce auditable documentation and implementation roadmaps for AI governance
