Background

AI is already reshaping industries, but many boards are unprepared to harness its potential – or mitigate its risks. Without AI literacy at the leadership level, organisations risk falling behind competitors, making poor investment decisions, or exposing themselves to compliance failures.

Recent studies show that only 15% of corporate board members feel well-informed about AI’s benefits and risks. Big Four research further reveals that 79% of board members and executives lack sufficient AI knowledge, with 45% reporting that AI is not even on their board’s agenda. This highlights a critical gap in AI literacy, particularly for SMEs that may not have access to high-cost advisory services.

As a leader, it’s imperative to harness AI’s potential while ensuring robust governance and ethical oversight. Our CPD-certified program helps boards and senior leaders turn AI uncertainty into a competitive advantage by providing clear, actionable insights into AI opportunities and risks.

Who is this course for?

This practical, business-focused AI literacy course is designed by boardroom professionals, for boardroom professionals—helping senior leaders seize AI opportunities while mitigating risks. It is suitable for senior decision-makers responsible for steering their organisations towards effective AI decisions, including:

C-Suite Executives – Steering organisational vision and strategy
Board Members – Overseeing governance and risk
Non-Executive Directors – Bringing fresh ideas and independent perspectives
Senior Leaders and Advisors – Driving AI initiatives and policy formulation
