AI Governance for Executive Leaders with Dr Peta Chirgwin

1 Day

- 18 March

Risk, Responsibility and Decision Assurance

Presented by AIMWA and facilitated by Dr Peta Chirgwin, CEO of Chameleon Mettle Group, this one day short course examines what AI governance asks of executives and boards. AI is already shaping decisions your organisation is accountable for, and that accountability does not shift. 

You will explore the current governance and regulatory landscape, how to identify risk across compliance, safety, workforce impact and organisational accountability, and how to hold human authority in place as AI use expands.
