Presentation
Artificial intelligence accelerates innovation but introduces new risks: discriminatory bias, adversarial attacks and changing regulatory requirements. This 4.5-day PECB Certified AI Risk Manager course develops you into a specialist able to identify, quantify and reduce these threats while preserving the business value of your AI projects.
Based on proven AI risk management frameworks such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and European AI regulation, this course combines theory, case studies and practical exercises. You will assess model robustness, develop mitigation plans, test incident scenarios and write compliance reports required by regulators. These tasks use industry-standard tools (MLSecOps, explainability dashboards, model registries, etc.).
After completing this PECB programme, you will be able to manage the AI risk lifecycle, ensure regulatory compliance and make informed decisions to continually improve security measures. This programme also prepares you for and enables you to take the certification exam for PECB Certified AI Risk Manager (find out more in the Certification tab).
