Policies exist in theory but fail in practice due to misalignment between board expectations, legal guardrails, and technical teams.

The situation this course is for

Leaders approve AI initiatives without clear governance, leading to fragmented ownership, inconsistent risk treatment, and delayed scaling. Practitioners struggle to translate board mandates into operational controls across engineering, compliance, and product teams.

Who this is for

Mid-to-senior level professionals in governance, risk, compliance, IT, data, security, or technology leadership shaping AI policy across functions.

Who this is not for

Individuals seeking technical prompt engineering or coding skills, or those not involved in cross-functional AI governance decisions.

What you walk away with

  • Architect board-aligned generative AI policies with enforcement pathways
  • Map cross-functional stakeholder requirements into policy design
  • Apply risk-tiered frameworks to AI use cases by impact level
  • Develop audit-ready documentation and escalation protocols
  • Lead AI governance discussions with executive and non-technical leaders
