What is the ISO 42001 for Project Functional Leads course about?
Teams are expected to implement AI governance quickly, but without clear frameworks, ownership, or resources. Practitioners end up responding to audits, requests, and escalations instead of shaping policy early. This leads to rework, inconsistent outcomes, and missed opportunities to lead.
