Course Overview

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how organizations make decisions, assess risk, and engage with regulators. Yet one persistent challenge remains: when AI systems produce outputs that cannot be explained, they create compliance exposure, erode stakeholder trust, and undermine operational accountability. Explainable AI (XAI) addresses this directly by making AI behavior transparent, interpretable, and auditable.

This course provides a structured, practitioner-focused grounding in explainable AI for professionals working across product development, risk management, compliance, and enterprise governance. Participants will explore the foundational principles of XAI, the regulatory and governance frameworks shaping responsible AI adoption, and the technical methods used to interpret and validate AI models. The curriculum spans the full product lifecycle, from embedding explainability at the design stage through to continuous monitoring and incident response.

With coverage of real-world applications in financial services, healthcare, and the public sector, this course equips participants to navigate the practical and regulatory dimensions of XAI. Whether you are building AI products, managing model risk, or advising on governance strategy, this course provides the knowledge needed to advance responsible AI practices within your organization.
