Professionals moving into AI governance, risk, compliance, or policy who are targeting IAPP’s AIGP. No legal or coding background required.
AI governance is becoming its own discipline, and the AIGP is the credential the field is standardising on. It rewards structured thinking about risk and process rather than legal training. We build the vocabulary and the frameworks from the ground up.
Three weeks of live learning, with hands-on work between sessions. Join the waitlist for future cohort details.
AI definitions and the actors involved, then the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO 42001. Together these are nearly half the exam.
The single largest domain on the exam, all in the build phase.
What happens once the system is live, then a package you can show an employer.
Studies keep pointing to a shortage of practitioners who can govern AI in practice. A new generation of certifications is arriving to meet that demand, and the IAPP AIGP is one leading the pack.

LABS stands for Let’s Actually Build Something, and you get one every week. Week one, a one-page AI acceptable-use policy for an organization you actually know, naming who it covers, what is approved, what is prohibited, and who decides. Week two, an impact assessment on a real use case with severity, likelihood, the mitigation you chose, and a recommendation you can defend. Week three, the capstone: a six-document governance package covering intake, assessment, framework crosswalk, system card, vendor review, and a monitoring and incident-response plan.
A browser tool built for this cohort. You use it in week one to classify a real system, and in week three it assembles your six-document capstone out of the intake and the assessment you already did. It is the set of artifacts a working governance professional hands to someone who was not in the room, and most candidates studying for this exam have never produced one.

Complete the course and receive a personalized certificate with your name, track and a public verification link. This records course completion; professional certification requires the separate certification exam.
