The AI Risk Manager training course equips participants with the essential knowledge and skills to identify, assess, mitigate, and manage AI-related risks. Based on leading frameworks such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, the EU AI Act, and insights from the MIT AI Risk Repository, this course provides a structured approach to AI risk governance, regulatory compliance, and ethical risk management. 

Participants will also analyze real-world AI risk scenarios from the MIT AI Risk Repository, gaining practical insights into AI risk challenges and effective mitigation strategies.

Why Should You Attend?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming industries at an accelerated pace, driving innovation while simultaneously introducing new risks and challenges. As AI technologies advance, organizations must address critical concerns such as bias, security threats, transparency, and regulatory compliance. Managing these risks effectively requires a specialized approach that goes beyond traditional risk management frameworks. 

The PECB Certified AI Risk Manager certification validates your expertise in identifying, assessing, and mitigating AI-related risks while ensuring compliance with industry frameworks and regulations.

Upon passing the certification exam, participants can apply for the “PECB Certified AI Risk Manager” credential.
