Tools & resources
What changes after this module
Board and C-suite understand personal accountability under the EU AI Act, can evaluate governance readiness, and know how to govern AI agents, not just AI tools.
Who should attend
C-suite and executives. Beginner: no AI experience needed.
Programme
This agenda is indicative. Content, sequencing, and examples are adapted to your team's context, tools, and objectives.
Before you start
- List of AI tools currently in use (official or suspected)
- Your risk register or governance charter if one exists
- One decision you’d hesitate to delegate to AI
- No technical background needed
| 1 | 9:00–10:00 | EU AI Act: what it means: Risk-classification tiers, the tiered penalty regime, Article 4 AI literacy (in force since Feb 2025, enforced from Aug 2026), and what the “Digital Omnibus” deferral of high-risk obligations does and doesn’t change, translated into what the board is on the hook for. Hands-onParticipants map their organisation’s known AI uses onto the Act’s risk tiers on a shared wall chart, surfacing anything that lands in high-risk or prohibited territory. |
| 2 | 10:00–10:30 | Board-level accountability: Personal and collective liabilityThe gap between board enthusiasm and documented oversightWhat “meaningful oversight” looks like in practice. Hands-onBoard self-test: each director answers a 6-question accountability checklist and names their single biggest exposure. |
| 10:30–10:45 · ☕ Coffee break | ||
| 3 | 10:45–11:30 | Shadow AI & agent governance: The reality that multiple unsanctioned tools are usually already in useBuilding a responsible-AI usage policyAgent-specific governance: the federated model where domains own day-to-day agent oversight and a central team owns platforms, guardrails, and audit trails. Hands-onGroup exercise: draft the skeleton of a one-page acceptable-use and agent-governance policy, deciding what’s allowed, what needs approval, who owns it, and the first-24-hours incident path. |
| 4 | 11:30–12:05 | Responsible AI: Where bias bites: hiring, credit, healthcareA practical ethics and fairness frameworkHuman-in-the-loop for consequential decisions. Hands-onCase clinic: participants review two real-world AI failures, decide what control would have caught each, then check their own processes for the same gap. |
| 5 | 12:05–13:00 | Governance checklist: Turning the session into an action listA readiness assessment across policy, oversight, data, and skills. Hands-onEach participant completes the governance readiness assessment (traffic-light scoring) for their organisation and leaves with a prioritised remediation list. |
Deliverables
- Governance readiness checklist (completed during session)
- Shadow AI risk assessment template
- EU AI Act timeline wall chart
