On Thursday 17 September 2026, Zahed Ashkara, founder of Embed AI, presents a webinar on the EU AI Act for the Dutch education and training sector on behalf of NRTO. NRTO, the Dutch Council for Training and Education, is the industry association for private training providers and offers the webinar free of charge to the entire sector. The webinar is held in Dutch. Registration is open on the NRTO website.
Why this webinar
AI is already in use in virtually every training organisation, from course materials and marketing to assessment and administration. The experimental phase is over, and the law now expects organisations to have their AI affairs in order. But what is actually in place? Which tools do your employees use, what information is allowed in them, and what does the AI Act concretely require from you as an employer and training provider?
The webinar translates the rules into the daily practice of training providers. No abstract theory and no grand AI promises, but a clear answer to the question: what do I need to arrange on Monday?
What you will learn
After this webinar you will know:
- Which AI obligations already apply to your organisation, both as an employer and as a training provider
- How to map which AI tools are used within the organisation and what information may and may not go into them
- When you must be transparent about AI, for example with chatbots and AI-generated images or video
- Where the biggest risks are with AI in recruitment, student assessment and communications
- The four steps to organise this: determine your role, map tools and users, choose appropriate measures and record what you have done
Practical details
The webinar takes place on Thursday 17 September 2026 from 11:00 to 12:00 CEST, online via Microsoft Teams. Participation is free. The link is sent on Monday 14 September to everyone who registered via the NRTO registration form.
