What is the Risk-Managed MLOps Foundations for Senior course about?
Senior leaders are increasingly asked to sponsor or oversee machine learning initiatives, yet lack structured frameworks to assess model risk, ensure compliance, or evaluate team readiness. This leads to misalignment between technical execution and strategic objectives, delayed deployments, and reactive responses to audit or control findings.
