12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
Siloed AI procurement leads to audit failures, compliance rework, and delayed deployments

The situation this course is for

AI initiatives often bypass audit until late stages, creating friction, control gaps, and reactive fixes. Without a shared strategy across functions, teams waste cycles reconciling after deployment instead of designing for compliance upfront.

Who this is for

Compliance leads, internal auditors, procurement strategists, and technology risk officers driving AI governance in regulated or scaling environments

Who this is not for

This is not for individual contributors focused only on technical AI model validation or developers implementing AI code without governance oversight

What you walk away with

  • Design procurement workflows that embed audit requirements from initiation to vendor selection
  • Apply a standardized AI vendor evaluation framework aligned with internal control expectations
  • Integrate audit checkpoints into sourcing timelines without slowing innovation
  • Translate AI risk assessments into actionable procurement contract terms
  • Lead cross-functional alignment sessions between legal, procurement, audit, and AI delivery teams
