Certified EU AI Governance Professional (Coming Soon)

‍

Why Should You Attend?

While transforming industries, AI is raising significant ethical and regulatory considerations. As AI systems continue to advance, organisations must ensure the systems remain safe, reliable, and ethical by adopting effective governance practices. This requires a structured, professional approach, including governance, risk management, regulatory compliance, and ongoing monitoring.

Europe is setting the tone for responsible AI with the EU AI Act, the world’s first structured legal framework for artificial intelligence. It categorises systems by the level of risk they pose and places proportionate responsibilities on those who build and deploy them, ranging from basic transparency obligations to outright bans on applications deemed too dangerous. For organisations with any presence in the European market, the EU AI Act translates the principles of responsible AI into concrete obligations, from documented risk assessments and human oversight to data governance, embedding good practice directly into the regulatory framework.

After completing the training course, participants can sit for the certification exam. After successfully passing the exam, participants can apply for the “PECB Certified EU AI Governance Professional” credential, which demonstrates their expertise, knowledge, and practical ability to effectively implement and manage AI governance and compliance in line with the EU AI Act.
