Overview
The ISO/IEC 42001 Information Technology Artificial Intelligence Management System Lead Auditor Training course aims to develop lead auditors capable of assessing the requirements of the ISO/IEC 42001 standard, which enables organisations to manage their artificial intelligence systems using a responsible, reliable, transparent and risk-based approach.
The training covers artificial intelligence management system principles, the clauses and annex requirements of the standard, artificial intelligence risk and impact assessments, audit planning and implementation processes, the evaluation of nonconformities, and audit reporting methods.
The programme is designed to cover both theoretical knowledge and practical application. Participants have the opportunity to develop their auditing skills through case studies and sample audit scenarios.
This training can be delivered in two different formats: a comprehensive 5-day programme and an intensive 3-day programme.
