AI Governance for Government & Public Sector is a six-week specialisation for the people who must answer for AI inside the Nigerian state. It moves from the foundations of why public-sector AI is a category of its own, through national policy and regulatory oversight, public trust and transparency, procurement and vendor governance, responsible operations and risk, and ends with an audit-and-assurance capstone. Throughout, it grounds international practice — the EU AI Act, the OECD AI Principles, ISO/IEC 42001 and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework — in Nigerian reality: the NDPA 2023, the NDPC, NITDA, the National AI Strategy, federal and state MDAs, and the Public Procurement Act.
By the end you will be able to design governance arrangements for a ministry, department or agency; scrutinise an AI procurement; assess and treat the risks of a public-facing system; and lead or commission an assurance review that a regulator or auditor-general would respect.
For: Civil servants, MDA directors and ICT leads, policy advisers, public-sector internal auditors and procurement officers, regulators, and oversight-body staff governing AI in Nigerian government.
