What is the Compliance-Ready Engineering Productivity course about?
Cross-functional programs often move fast but face delays when audit time comes. Teams rebuild documentation, scramble to prove controls, and rework processes that weren't designed with compliance in mind. This creates friction, erodes trust, and slows innovation in regulated environments.
