AI+ Ethics™ is a focused, one-day program designed to equip professionals with the knowledge and frameworks needed to evaluate, guide, and govern ethical AI use within organisations. As AI systems scale, leaders must navigate challenges around bias, fairness, privacy, transparency, security, and global regulatory requirements. This course provides a practical foundation to assess risks, strengthen governance, and ensure AI systems operate responsibly and in alignment with organisational values. Learners explore real-world case studies, ethical decision-making models, and global standards to understand how ethical failures occur—and how to prevent them. The program features hands-on exposure to leading tools such as IBM AI Fairness 360, IBM AI Explainability 360, AI4People Frameworks, and the European Commission’s AI Ethics Guidelines, helping participants analyse model behaviour, identify bias, and strengthen oversight. Whether you work in compliance, technology, risk, policy, academia, or leadership, this certification builds the confidence and capability to shape trustworthy AI practices across industries.
