AI Governance & Responsible AI Specialist

The complete, ordered path from AI-risk basics to a certification-ready credential — so you finish as the person organizations trust to make their AI fair, compliant and safe to deploy.

Career goal

Be the bridge between technical AI teams and legal/compliance — translating regulation like the EU AI Act into controls engineers can actually build, and evidence auditors will accept.

Your journey

The complete path, milestone by milestone.

Eight milestones, each anchored to one course. Follow them in order — every step is built on the one before.

1
Foundation Weeks 1–2

Understand what can go wrong with AI

Start with the why. Learn the real-world failures — bias, opacity, misuse, drift — that make AI governance a discipline in the first place.

Foundation Weeks 2–3

Know the law that's coming for AI

Get fluent in the EU AI Act's risk tiers and obligations so the frameworks later in the path have a legal anchor.
