- How to decide what AI tool use to approve themselves and what to escalate

Who it is for
Written for managers and leaders. No technical background is needed, and nothing in it assumes a previous course.
This course from Blocknorth gives line managers and department heads a practical, plain-English grounding in AI governance at team level: what to approve, what to escalate, and how to spot shadow AI. Built for managers who are not AI or legal specialists but who approve tool use and manage people using AI every day.
