Generative AI moves fast. Policy frameworks lag behind, creating execution risk in mid-market enterprises scaling responsibly.
The situation this course is for
As Generative AI initiatives move from proof-of-concept to production, mid-market enterprises face unique governance challenges. Existing frameworks from early cloud or data governance eras don't translate cleanly. Teams are forced to retrofit outdated controls to novel technical and ethical risks, leading to inconsistent enforcement, compliance exposure, and leadership misalignment. Without a structured approach, organizations either over-constrain innovation or under-define accountability.
Who this is for
Compliance officers, risk leads, IT governance professionals, and senior engineers in established mid-market companies (500, 5,000 employees) adopting Generative AI in production systems.
Who this is not for
Startups in pre-product phase, solo practitioners, or executives seeking high-level AI strategy without implementation detail. This is not for organizations using only off-the-shelf consumer AI tools with no internal deployment.
What you walk away with
- Design auditable Generative AI policies aligned with SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST AI standards
- Map policy controls to technical architecture in hybrid and on-prem environments
- Evaluate third-party AI vendor risk using a calibrated scoring rubric
- Build incident response workflows tailored to generative model drift and hallucination events
- Produce board-ready reports that translate technical risk into enterprise impact
