Feeling like AI governance is happening around you, not led by you?
The situation this course is for
Most practitioners in digital strategy see AI governance as a compliance task owned elsewhere, until an initiative stalls or a regulator asks a sharp question. Without a clear framework, even strong marketers find their influence capped when technical or risk teams take the lead.
Who this is for
Digital marketing leaders in high-velocity e-commerce environments who are expected to scale AI use without introducing risk
Who this is not for
Engineers implementing AI controls from a technical spec, or compliance staff focused solely on audit evidence collection
What you walk away with
- Design AI governance structures that align with customer lifecycle goals
- Lead internal discussions using ISO 42001’s control framework with confidence
- Produce clear, stakeholder-specific narratives for AI use cases in marketing
- Anticipate governance questions before they arise in campaign planning
- Position yourself as the internal reference for AI governance in digital channels
