Who it is for
Built for the people between the ask and the answer.
- Business Relationship Managers and demand leads who are the first to see an AI request and want to find its exposure while it is cheap
- Product and delivery leads who will own the register, the prompts and the stop button after launch
- Privacy, security, equality and assurance colleagues who want to know what a shaped request will bring them, and when
Six units
One unit for each idea that matters.
-
Unit 1: Responsibility begins at the front door
Exposure is cheapest to find at the Shape gate. The flags, the floors, and why the canvas is a triage rather than a risk methodology.
-
Unit 2: The register row
A raised flag leaves as a cause in plain words, an owner who is a person and a condition a named role could check.
-
Unit 3: The four agent questions
For anything that acts rather than answers: reads, writes, sends, spends; approvers and thresholds; who can stop it; what happens when it fails silently.
-
Unit 4: The lowest rung that solves the task
Five rungs, the shaping question, and why a low rung can carry a large effect. Human control that is real rather than a signature.
-
Unit 5: Prompts as governed configuration
Named, versioned, owned, tested, approved and retired, and rerun against fixed cases when the model underneath changes.
-
Unit 6: Routing to assurance
One description, written once, routed to privacy, equality, transparency, security, commercial and service assessments in the right order, with contestability and redress designed in.
-
Final knowledge check and certificate
Ten easy questions across all six units, open once all six are complete. Seven correct passes it, and the Generate certificate button appears: your Responsible AI Practitioner certificate of completion and digital badge, drawn on your device with your name, ready for LinkedIn.
