A tailored course, built for your situation
Cross-Functional Generative AI Policy Design for Audit Teams
Build implementation-grade AI governance frameworks with audit integrity at the core
The situation this course is for
As generative AI spreads across departments, audit functions face increasing pressure to assess systems they didn’t design, using outdated or fragmented policy frameworks. Without structured, cross-functional AI policies, audit teams risk being sidelined or issuing qualifications based on incomplete visibility.
Who this is for
Compliance officers, internal auditors, risk leads, and technology governance professionals in mid-to-large organizations adopting generative AI at scale.
Who this is not for
This course is not for individuals seeking introductory AI awareness or technical prompt engineering skills. It is not for teams not yet engaged with AI governance or audit of automated decision-making systems.
What you walk away with
- Design auditable generative AI policies that span data, security, compliance, and operations
- Establish cross-functional alignment between legal, IT, risk, and business units
- Integrate policy design with existing audit frameworks and control environments
- Produce documentation that satisfies internal and external audit requirements
- Lead AI governance initiatives with confidence and structured methodology
