Apprenticeship unit overview

Make AI safe, ethical and defensible – without slowing your organisation down.

The Governing and Risk‑Managing AI in Organisations unit is designed for leaders who are accountable for ensuring AI is used responsibly, while still enabling innovation and progress. It focuses on the reality most organisations face – unclear risks, evolving regulation and pressure to move quickly.

Build the capability to make clear, defensible decisions and navigate ethical dilemmas in complex and high-stakes AI scenarios. Learn how to take ownership of AI outcomes, define accountability across your organisation and apply governance that protects without blocking progress.

You won't just learn theory – gain practical tools you can use straight away, including a tailored AI Ethics Statement, structured Bias Risk Assessment and Risk Register, and a governance approach that works in your organisation's reality.
