Course Overview

AI Technology, Policy and Governance Online Course is a professional training program designed for individuals and organizations seeking to understand how artificial intelligence works, how AI risks are governed, and how policy expectations shape responsible enterprise use. As AI becomes more embedded in automation, decision support, generative AI tools, data workflows, vendor systems, and executive strategy, organizations need professionals who can connect technology understanding with governance, privacy, fairness, accountability, security, and assurance.

This course provides a structured overview of AI technology before moving into the U.S. AI governance landscape, responsible AI principles, privacy considerations, automated decision-making, use-case inventories, risk tiering, approval controls, vendor risk, evidence files, monitoring, incidents, and executive oversight.
