About the course

Build a Practical Foundation for AI Risk Management

  • Learn how AI risk differs from traditional enterprise risk through opacity, autonomy, emergent behaviour, and AI-specific technical, operational, ethical, legal, and reputational risks.
  • Understand how the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and GDPR intersect with AI risk management and regulatory expectations.
  • Learn how to identify AI systems across your organization, including built, bought, embedded, and unauthorized shadow AI.
  • Develop a structured approach to classifying AI systems based on risk, impact, autonomy, and applicable obligations.

Assess the Risks That Matter

  • Learn how to assess AI risk using likelihood, impact, reversibility, scale, and systemic-effect considerations.
  • Identify and evaluate key risks including algorithmic bias, model drift, data quality, third-party AI, adversarial attacks, prompt injection, and data poisoning.
  • Build the ability to document AI risk assessments in a structured format that supports governance and regulatory review.
  • Apply practical tools and templates to move from identifying AI risks to understanding their potential consequences.

Turn AI Risk Assessments Into Action

  • Learn how to select appropriate risk treatments including accept, mitigate, transfer, or avoid.
  • Understand how technical controls, governance controls, and meaningful human oversight can reduce AI risk.
  • Build an AI risk register covering risks, controls, owners, governance, review cycles, and management reporting.
  • Develop a repeatable approach for documenting residual risk and obtaining appropriate approval.

Keep AI Risk Under Continuous Control

  • Learn why periodic assessments alone are insufficient and how to establish continuous AI risk monitoring.
  • Identify key risk indicators, monitoring approaches, performance dashboards, drift alerts, and incident feedback mechanisms.
  • Connect AI risk management with broader Enterprise Risk Management and build a sustainable AI risk program.
  • Reinforce your learning through practical insights, quizzes, practice tests, and downloadable learning materials designed to help you apply the concepts in professional situations.
