A tailored course, built for your situation
Mastering ISO 42001 for Program Managers in Critical Infrastructure Technology
A structured path from AI governance intent to fully documented, audit-ready outputs in weeks, not months
The situation this course is for
Program Managers in regulated technology environments are being asked to deliver ISO 42001 compliance artefacts without clear templates or repeatable methods. The gap isn't knowledge, it's execution velocity. Most teams waste cycles debating control scope, evidence formats, or AI inventory structure instead of shipping.
Who this is for
Senior Program Manager in a regulated federal systems integrator, responsible for deploying governance frameworks across enterprise asset management and technology modernization programs
Who this is not for
Entry-level auditors, standalone developers, or practitioners outside of compliance-critical technology delivery roles
