Stuck influencing only within your immediate team despite growing AI governance demands

The situation this course is for

AI governance is expanding rapidly, but most practitioners remain siloed within their original function. Without a recognized framework to guide cross-unit collaboration, their impact plateaus just as demand for coordination intensifies across regions and business lines.

Who this is for

Senior practitioner in data, compliance, or governance looking to expand their sphere of influence beyond immediate responsibilities

Who this is not for

Entry-level analysts, team members without cross-functional exposure, or those focused solely on technical implementation without governance oversight

What you walk away with

  • Lead AI governance discussions across business units using ISO 42001 as a common language
  • Anticipate and shape AI policy inputs from regions and departments before they become conflicting priorities
  • Become the go-to practitioner when new geographies or lines of business initiate AI governance planning
  • Document positioning strategies that align diverse stakeholders under one governance umbrella
  • Deliver governance artefacts that are adopted organically by peer teams
