Compliance professionals are being asked to govern systems they weren’t trained to evaluate

The situation this course is for

As machine learning becomes embedded in core business processes, compliance officers face increasing pressure to assess model risk, validate audit trails, and ensure regulatory alignment, without clear frameworks or engineering fluency. Traditional compliance training doesn’t cover how models are built, deployed, or monitored, leaving professionals dependent on technical teams and reactive in audits.

Who this is for

Mid-to-senior compliance, risk, or governance professionals in technology-driven organizations who interface with data science or ML engineering teams and want to lead with confidence in algorithmic accountability

Who this is not for

Individuals seeking high-level AI ethics overviews or introductory data science concepts; this is not for engineers learning to build models

What you walk away with

  • Apply structured frameworks to assess ML system compliance across jurisdictions
  • Map model development lifecycles to control requirements and audit checkpoints
  • Design governance workflows that integrate with MLOps pipelines
  • Lead cross-functional alignment between compliance, legal, and engineering teams
  • Build reusable documentation templates for model risk assessment and audit readiness
