What is the Board-Level AI Model Risk Management course about?

Leaders are expected to oversee AI initiatives despite fragmented guidance, evolving standards, and limited frameworks suited to board-level decision-making. Traditional risk models don't translate well to probabilistic systems, leaving gaps in accountability, transparency, and escalation protocols.
