Audit-ready AI service agreements that don’t stall on SLA misalignment

The situation this course is for

ML engineering teams face repeated rework when service agreements fail to meet ISO 20000 expectations during compliance review. The gap isn't technical capability, it's having standardized, pre-validated service management artefacts that stand up under auditor scrutiny. This course closes it.

Who this is for

ML Engineering Senior Analyst at a global consulting firm, operating at the intersection of AI delivery and enterprise compliance. Works across regulated sectors where demonstrable service governance is non-negotiable.

Who this is not for

Junior data scientists focused only on model training, or executives who delegate compliance entirely. This is for hands-on practitioners who own deliverables that face audit cycles.

What you walk away with

  • Produce ISO 20000-compliant service agreements without cross-team rework
  • Own the service availability and incident response framework for AI systems
  • Reduce audit prep time by standardizing evidence collection workflows
  • Lead client discussions on service continuity with authoritative backing
  • Embed compliance into CI/CD pipelines for AI deployments
