Certified AI Governance Professional (AIGP) Training in Nigeria

There are no prerequisites for this course.

Who Should Train?

We must continue to build and refine the governance processes through which trustworthy AI will emerge and we must invest in the people who will build ethical and responsible AI. Those who work in compliance, privacy, security, risk management, legal, HR and governance together with data scientists, AI project managers, business analysts, AI product owners, model ops teams and others must be prepared to tackle the expanded equities at issue in AI governance.

Including any professionals tasked with developing AI governance and risk management in their operations, and anyone pursuing IAPP Artificial Intelligence Governance Professional (AIGP) certification.

AIGP training teaches how to develop, integrate, and deploy trustworthy AI systems in line with emerging laws and policies. The curriculum provides an overview of AI technology, survey of current law, and strategies for risk management, security and safety considerations, privacy protection and other topics.

• Establish foundational knowledge of AI systems and their use cases, the impacts of AI, and comprehension of responsible AI principles.
• Demonstrate an understanding of how current and emerging laws apply to AI systems, and how major frameworks are capable of being responsibly governed.
• Show comprehension of the AI life cycle, the context in which AI risks are managed, and the implementation of responsible AI governance.
• Presents awareness of unforeseen concerns with AI and knowledge of debated issues surrounding AI governance.

This training teaches critical AI governance concepts that are also integral to the AIGP certification exam. While not purely a “test prep” course, this training is appropriate for professionals who plan to certify, as well as for those who want to deepen their AI governance knowledge. Both the training and the exam are based on the same body of knowledge.
