What is the Enterprise-Class AI Incident Response course about?

As AI systems grow more embedded in public-sector operations, the absence of formal incident response frameworks leads to reactive decision-making, inconsistent communication, compliance exposure, and delayed recovery. Professionals are expected to lead through crises but often lack access to standardized, field-tested response playbooks tailored to public-sector constraints.
