What is the ISO 42001 for COO-Level Data course about?

Senior data leaders are expected to enforce AI governance, but most lack the standardized, defensible framework to claim clear ownership. Without it, decisions leak to legal, risk, or external consultants, diluting your influence despite being closest to the data.

Who this is not for

Individual contributors without cross-team oversight, entry-level compliance staff, or practitioners focused solely on model development without governance responsibilities.

What you walk away with

  • Own the design and deployment of ISO 42001-compliant AI governance frameworks within your domain
  • Produce audit-ready Statements of Applicability (SoA) with confidence in control mapping
  • Lead cross-functional alignment on AI risk thresholds without escalation
