Compliance teams are expected to validate data integrity across AI systems, but most lack a systematic way to trace data from source to decision

The situation this course is for

As AI adoption accelerates, regulators are asking sharper questions about data provenance. Compliance officers are caught between technical complexity and accountability requirements, often relying on manual, error-prone processes that don’t scale. Without a structured approach to data lineage, audits take longer, risks increase, and strategic influence diminishes.

Who this is for

A compliance, risk, or governance professional in a data-intensive organization who needs to understand, verify, and report on data flows within AI and machine learning systems

Who this is not for

This course is not for data engineers focused solely on pipeline architecture, nor for executives seeking high-level AI policy overviews. It is designed for practitioners who must implement and validate compliance-ready data lineage.

What you walk away with

  • Apply AI tools to automatically map and validate data lineage across hybrid environments
  • Design compliance-grade documentation that satisfies internal and external auditors
  • Integrate lineage practices into existing governance workflows without disrupting operations
  • Translate technical data flows into clear, auditable reports for regulators
  • Lead cross-functional initiatives with data, engineering, and compliance teams using a shared framework
