Who it is for
Written for executives and board. No technical background is needed, and nothing in it assumes a previous course.
This course from Blocknorth gives executives and board members a clear, practical grounding in AI governance oversight, covering the liability exposure, the questions to ask management, and the governance structure a board should expect to see. No technical background is needed: you will learn why this is now a fiduciary matter, the current rules and their timeline, what good governance looks like in practice, and where the board sits in it.
