Why this topic matters

AI is changing how organizations operate, make decisions, and manage risk. As adoption accelerates, companies will need people who can help ensure AI is used responsibly, safely, and effectively. For project managers, this creates a powerful opportunity to bring structure, oversight, communication, and accountability to one of the fastest-growing areas in business.

You'll learn from

Niharika Srivastav

AIGP, AI Governance Advisor, Speaker, Author

Niharika has spent 25+ years closing the gap between AI innovation and compliance approval. Former roles at Deloitte, Bank of America, Charles Schwab, and Blue Shield of California gave her deep enterprise experience.

Sanjay Saxena

Chief AI Officer (Fractional), CISSP, Ex-Deloitte, KPMG, Harvard

Sanjay has spent 25 years in the room where AI projects get approved or killed. At Deloitte, KPMG, CVS Health, and Kaiser Permanente, he witnessed brilliant ideas die because teams couldn't speak the language of legal and compliance. That's why he created this course.

As Founder of CyberEDX, he helps businesses scale AI responsibly. He holds CISSP and PMP certifications, he did Executive MBA from Harvard Business School, and earned his engineering degree in India. His 25+ years span AI implementation, security, and enterprise architecture across highly regulated environments.

Sanjay breaks down complex concepts into frameworks students use immediately. He also hosts technology radio shows, believing that if you can't explain something simply, you don't understand it well enough.
