Description
Humanity stands at a turning point.
Artificial intelligence is driving a transformation unlike anything we've seen before—offering tremendous potential, but also posing significant risks.
Are we ready for a world where technology becomes this powerful?
For many organizations, the answer is: not yet.
ISO/IEC 42001 is one of the first international standards designed to help organizations navigate this new reality. It sets out the requirements and guidance for establishing an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS), and it's relevant to any entity that develops, provides, or uses AI-based products or services.
What this course offers?
This course provides a practical and comprehensive understanding of ISO/IEC 42001 and the AIMS it proposes. The course follows the structure of the standard and walks you through the requirements in clauses 4 to 10:
Context of the organization
Leadership
Planning
Support
Operation
Performance Evaluation
Improvement
Deep dive into the AI controls
The course also covers in detail the 38 controls from Annex A of the standard. These controls are grouped into 9 key categories:
AI-related policies
Internal organization
Resources for AI systems
AI system impact assessment
AI system life cycle
Data for AI systems
Information for interested parties
Use of AI systems
Third-party and customer relationships
The Annex A controls touch on all aspects of AI governance—covering data, transparency, third-party communication, and the broader impact of AI systems on individuals and society.
Each control is explained through a dedicated video that describes what the standard requires and how compliance can be achieved in real-world scenarios.
