AI Act and AI Literacy
The AI Act is a key regulatory framework created to ensure AI is developed and used responsibly. It came into force in the EU on 2 August 2024, with AI literacy requirements starting on 2 February 2025. From then, organizations that provide or deploy AI systems must ensure their staff, and anyone involved in AI operations on their behalf, have sufficient AI literacy.
AI literacy is crucial not only for complying with the AI Act but also for enabling individuals to harness AI’s potential responsibly. It helps mitigate risks while aligning with organizational goals and regulatory standards. Diverse stakeholders must undergo AI literacy training and our programs are customized to their technical knowledge, experience, education, and the context in which they use AI systems.
Our approach
Our trainings are developed to cater to a diverse stakeholder audience of different levels of technical expertise and are designed to help participants:
Understand the legal requirements on your organisation and how to comply with them in practice,
Understand the opportunities and risks of AI systems and how to create and use AI safely in a way that protects fundamental rights, health and safety,
Make informed decisions about AI systems in the specific context of your organisation.
We are also able to offer tailored AI literacy upskilling solutions upon request. A tailored approach is recommended for organisations that provide or deploy high-risk AI systems or general-purpose AI systems under the AI Act.
