This course gives you the ethics, verification, and governance skills to use AI responsibly at work. You will apply responsible AI principles, audit systems for bias, red-team and verify AI outputs, assess organizational risk, work through real ethical dilemmas, and draft a governance policy tailored to your organization. Every activity produces a defensible artifact: a bias audit, a risk register, an ethics analysis, or a policy document. By the end, you will be able to set and defend responsible AI practices for your team.
