Audit functions are expected to govern AI systems they weren’t designed to assess, using frameworks still in evolution.

The situation this course is for

AI adoption is accelerating, but audit teams lack standardised, actionable methods to evaluate model risk, validate ethical compliance, and document control effectiveness. Without a consistent approach, audit credibility and organisational trust are at stake.

Who this is for

Business and technology professionals in audit, risk, compliance, or governance roles who are engaging with AI systems and need a practical, defensible framework to assess and oversee deployment.

Who this is not for

This course is not for data scientists building models or executives seeking high-level AI strategy only. It’s specifically for audit practitioners who must implement oversight, not just review it.

What you walk away with

  • Apply a repeatable framework to assess AI model risk across deployment lifecycles
  • Design audit controls that align with evolving regulatory expectations
  • Document compliance using standardised templates mapped to global AI governance principles
  • Lead cross-functional AI review sessions with technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Integrate responsible AI checks into existing audit workflows without disrupting timelines
