Methodology, software & labs

How you'll learn

100% online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. There are no fixed timetables: you progress at your own pace within the intake, so it fits around your job.

Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is OneTrust, IBM watsonx.governance, Confluence and Jira, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Testing is studied on real procedures: preparing technical files for high-risk systems, fundamental rights impact assessments and post-market monitoring plans. Assessment is continuous by module, plus the final capstone project.

Standards covered: Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 on Artificial Intelligence, ISO/IEC 23894:2023, ISO/IEC 42001:2023, ISO 31000:2018, NIST AI RMF 1.0, ISO/IEC 5338:2023, ISO 14971:2019, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).

Assigned technical tutor:every module ends with a deliverable that your tutor marks individually.
Standards-based learning:guided reading of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, ISO/IEC 23894:2023 and ISO/IEC 42001:2023 applied to real cases, not as a theoretical annex.
Industry software:OneTrust, IBM watsonx.governance, Confluence and Jira, in free, academic or evaluation versions.
Final project:a risk management project for a real AI system, with justified regulatory classification, a risk treatment plan, a summary technical file and a post-market monitoring plan, reviewed by your tutor.
Flexible format:100% online, no fixed timetables, compatible with full-time work.
