Introduction to Artificial Intelligence Governance is a six-week, Foundation-level course built for the Nigerian context. It explains what AI governance is, why an organization needs it before AI is deployed at scale, and how the moving parts — the AI lifecycle, enterprise risks, responsible-AI principles, the global standards landscape, and accountable governance structures — fit together. The treatment is practical and opinionated, grounded in the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023, the NDPC, NITDA and the National AI Strategy, alongside accurate accounts of ISO/IEC 42001, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and the EU AI Act.
By the end you will be able to define AI governance to a board, map governance across the AI lifecycle, build a basic AI risk register, apply responsible-AI principles, compare the major global frameworks, and sketch a foundational governance structure for your own organisation.
For: Executives, project and product managers, compliance and risk teams, public-sector and university leaders, and professionals beginning the path to the Certified AI Governance Associate (CAIGA) certificate.
