This multi-track, competency-based MasterClass is designed for senior executives and AI practitioners who need to build organisational capability for implementing AI systems that are safe, secure, transparent, ethical, fair, explainable, reliable, and auditable.
The programme combines strategic leadership insight with hands-on implementation practice across the AI lifecycle — from requirements and data collection to model development, deployment, and MLOps. It is grounded in globally recognised frameworks including UNESCO, OECD, EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ASEAN Model AI Governance, ISO/IEC 42001, and the Microsoft Responsible AI Standard.

What You Will Learn
Programme Structure
The course is organised into two coordinated tracks:
Track 1 — Strategic Executive Track
A leadership-focused track that equips senior leaders and governance professionals with the ability to guide, oversee, and steward responsible AI adoption at the organisational level.
Track 2 — Tactical Practitioner Track
A practitioner-focused track that equips technical and operational teams to implement trustworthy AI in real-world systems, workflows, and AI development pipelines.
Certification as AI Governance Internal Auditor
This programme is designed to build the knowledge foundation and practical governance perspective needed to support internal AI governance reviews, assurance activities, and audit-readiness initiatives within organisations.
Participants will gain exposure to governance frameworks, lifecycle controls, documentation practices, validation and verification methods, and audit-oriented thinking aligned with trustworthy AI implementation and ISO/IEC 42001.
Participants who complete the programme will receive a certificate of completion from Koryu Keystone Academy.
The course is designed to strengthen practical capability in AI governance internal audit and assurance practices.
Six Reasons This Programme Pays for Itself
AI assurance is no longer optional. Regulators, boards, customers, and investors are demanding evidence that AI systems are governed responsibly. This 3-day programme gives you that evidence — and the credential to prove it.
Become Audit-Ready for ISO/IEC 42001
Build the knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA) to plan, conduct, report and follow up internal audits of an AI Management System using ISO 19011 — a capability that is rapidly becoming mandatory as regulators and clients demand AI assurance.
Protect Your Organisation from AI Risk
Learn how to identify, assess and mitigate ethical, human-rights, safety, legal and operational risks across Generative, Agentic and Physical AI — before they become regulatory penalties, reputational damage, or boardroom incidents.
Master Every Major Global Framework
One programme covers UN Resolution 78/265, UNESCO, OECD, EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, Microsoft Responsible AI Standard and Singapore-ASEAN Model AI Governance — so you can speak the language of every regulator and client.
Hands-On, Not Theoretical
Apply what you learn through live activities — build risk matrices, perform AI Impact Assessments (AIIA), run a rapid Microsoft AIIA on your own use case, and conduct a simulated internal audit using real audit checklists.
Career-Defining Credential
AI governance auditors are among the most sought-after professionals of 2026. This 3-day programme positions you for senior GRC, audit, compliance, AI ethics and DPO roles — at a fraction of the cost of overseas certifications.
Learn from a UN-Endorsed Expert
Your facilitator, Timothy Tay, designs and delivers AI governance training for the United Nations (APCICT) across Asia, and is a certified ISO 42001 Internal Auditor with 40+ years across AI, cybersecurity, GRC and risk.
