Course Description

AI literacy refers to the ability to understand, evaluate and interact with Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems effectively and responsibly. This is especially important as the EU AI Act, set to take effect in 2025, requires organisations to ensure that individuals involved in the development, deployment, and oversight of AI systems possess adequate AI literacy.

This one day instructor-led course is designed to equip participants with the essential knowledge and skills to meet these legal requirements. Through expert-led sessions and practical exercises, attendees will gain a clear understanding of AI, a summary of the Act’s requirements, strategies for responsible AI deployment and tools to align AI practices with regulatory standards.

  • Learn strategies for compliance with AI governance and ethical standards
  • Learn from industry experts and experienced professionals.
