A tailored course, built for your situation
Mastering ISO 42001 for Assistant Controllers in Global Services
A complete system to turn AI governance policy into working controls fast
The situation this course is for
Monthly AI governance reviews consume dozens of hours chasing down evidence, aligning teams, and reconciling control gaps, especially under regulator or internal audit cycles. The burden isn't strategy, it's the artifact: the completed SoA, the signed attestation, the mapped control evidence. Even with strong policy, the lag from intent to output slows delivery and raises scrutiny.
Who this is for
Senior financial and operational controllers in global services firms who own or contribute to AI governance, compliance, and risk control implementation , especially where audit cycles, multi-region operations, and external scrutiny converge.
Who this is not for
Individuals seeking high-level AI ethics discussions, non-practitioners, or those focused solely on technical AI model development without governance deliverables.
What you walk away with
- Produce auditable AI governance controls in under 4 hours per cycle
- Eliminate cross-team chasing during evidence collection
- Turn ISO 42001 policy clauses into working control artifacts
- Lock down control mappings before review cycles begin
- Automate 80% of recurring documentation for reuse
