AI & GRC Training: 5 Days of Legal, Risk & Compliance Insights

Artificial Intelligence & GRC: Mastering Legal and Risk Challenges

Course Overview:

This corporate training program, AI in Governance: Legal & Compliance Frameworks Training Course, bridges the gap between emerging artificial intelligence technologies and the legal, regulatory, and compliance frameworks shaping their use globally and within the GCC region. Participants will gain a solid foundation in artificial intelligence, from simplified explanations of machine learning, neural networks, and dataset bias, to understanding key metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. Practical demonstrations, such as training a simple model on Google Colab, will help participants grasp technical basics before transitioning into advanced governance and compliance modules.

The course then shifts to the global and regional governance landscape, focusing on NIST AI RMF, the EU AI Act, OECD AI Principles, ISO/IEC 42001, and GCC data protection laws. Participants will learn to map obligations into practical compliance artifacts, develop AI use policies, manage vendor contracts, and perform DPIAs and FRIAs tailored to Gulf regulations. By the end of the program, attendees will not only understand AI systems conceptually but also master governance tools, cross-border data transfer compliance, board reporting requirements, and ISO/IEC 42001 readiness. This comprehensive learning journey ensures professionals are prepared to navigate AI governance with confidence, compliance, and strategic foresight.

Training Methodology:

This course blends technical simplification with legal and compliance rigor to ensure accessibility for non-technical legal and governance professionals. Sessions begin with simplified introductions to AI concepts (machine learning, data, neural networks) supported by hands-on exercises like training a simple model in Google Colab. This technical foundation ensures participants can converse with stakeholders across IT, governance, and legal domains.

Interactive lectures and presentations will contextualize global frameworks (NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act, OECD AI Principles, ISO/IEC 42001) and GCC regulations (Saudi, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman). Practical exercises include drafting AI use policies, preparing vendor addendums, completing DPIA/FRIA checklists, and simulating board reporting. Workshops encourage collaborative learning, while case studies demonstrate regulatory enforcement and best practices in AI governance. Reflection & Review sessions close each day, consolidating learnings into actionable takeaways. This integrated methodology ensures participants acquire not only theoretical understanding but also practical, audit-ready governance and compliance skills.

 

Course Toolbox:

  • Participant workbook with frameworks, templates, and checklists
  • Google Colab demo environment for simple AI training exercises
  • DPIA/FRIA checklist tailored for GCC compliance
  • AI vendor addendum template (data use, transparency, SLAs)
  • Compliance matrix builder (EU/GCC/NIST/ISO)
  • Board reporting sample metrics and templates
  • Case study briefs for group exercises

FAQ:

What specific qualifications or prerequisites are needed for participants before enrolling in the course?

No prior technical AI expertise is required. Participants should have a background in legal, compliance, policy, or governance. A general understanding of corporate risk management or data protection will be beneficial but not mandatory.

How long is each day's session, and is there a total number of hours required for the entire course?

Each day's session is structured to last around 4–5 hours, with breaks and interactive activities included. The total course duration spans five days, approximately 20–25 hours of instruction.

 

How This Course is Different from Other AI Governance Courses:

Unlike purely technical AI courses or narrowly legal compliance seminars, the AI in Governance: Legal & Compliance Frameworks Training Course offers a dual-lens approach: first simplifying AI fundamentals for legal and compliance professionals, and then directly mapping these technical basics into governance and regulatory frameworks. This ensures participants not only understand “what AI is” but also “how to govern it.”

The program uniquely integrates global frameworks (NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act, OECD AI Principles, ISO/IEC 42001) with region-specific GCC regulations (Saudi, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman). Participants receive practical compliance tools such as DPIA/FRIA checklists, vendor addendums, and board reporting templates, all tailored to Gulf regulatory landscapes. The inclusion of hands-on demos, workshops, and mock audits ensures practical readiness, setting this course apart from lecture-only programs.

By the end, attendees walk away not just with knowledge, but with actionable governance strategies, compliance documentation examples, and the confidence to advise executives and boards on AI adoption risks and opportunities. This holistic blend of technical grounding, legal interpretation, and practical application makes the course distinctive and highly impactful.
