EU AI Act Compliance Essentials
A 60-minute, lawyer-led course for businesses using AI.
Practical training for business executives, in-house legal teams, compliance leads, and advisers who need a clear working understanding of what the EU AI Act means for everyday business use of AI.
What this course is
This course is a short, structured introduction to the parts of the EU AI Act that matter most to businesses using AI tools, AI-enabled software, and AI-supported workflows.
It is designed to help decision-makers understand where issues can arise, what needs attention first, and what practical steps to take next.
It is not a technical AI course and not a full academic treatment of the regulation. It is an essentials course for business use.
Designed for busy executives
This course is built for people who need to understand the EU AI Act efficiently, without turning it into a specialist legal study exercise.
It focuses on what business leaders and senior decision-makers need most: where the Act may affect the business, what obvious red flags to watch for, and what questions to ask internally or externally next.
