Course Objective & Scope
The EU AI Act applies extraterritorially to any organisation outside the EU whose AI systems or outputs are placed on the EU market or affect individuals in the Union. Moreover, Article 4 requires all providers and deployers to ensure a sufficient level of AI literacy among their staff and contractors based on their roles and the context of use.
This course unpacks the Act's scope, provider versus deployer obligations, prohibited and high-risk system rules, transparency duties and enforcement timeline. In the workshop, participants map their organisation's EU AI Act exposure and design an auditable, role-based corporate AI Literacy programme aligned with Article 4.
Who Should Attend?
- Legal, compliance, regulatory affairs and enterprise risk managers
- Business leaders serving EU clients or operating within multinational value chains
- HR, corporate academy and learning and development (L&D) heads
- AI governance committee members and digital transformation leads
Key Takeaways
- Assess the extraterritorial reach of the EU AI Act across the organisation's products and processes
- Determine whether the organisation acts as a provider, deployer, importer or distributor per system
- Outline compliance steps for high-risk systems, GPAI models and transparency-regulated AI
- Design a role-based AI Literacy curriculum that satisfies Article 4 requirements
- Establish documentation, attendance records and an implementation roadmap for regulatory readiness
