AI literacy masterclass for leadership and teams

A sharp masterclass for organizations that want to quickly understand what AI literacy means for policy, risk, productivity and Article 4 evidence.

Why this is not only about knowledge

Article 4 of the EU AI Act has applied since 2 February 2025. Organizations must be able to show that people working with AI have sufficient understanding of AI capabilities, limits and risks. A strong approach combines training with role mapping, assessment, training records and an evidence file.

Shared understanding of AI literacy and Article 4
Clear language for risks, opportunities and limits
First priorities for training and policy
Decision whether an Evidence Sprint is needed

Fast clarity for decision-makers and teams

Compact

A focused session of 60 to 180 minutes, adapted to audience and goal.

Strategic and practical

The link between AI use at work, EU AI Act, GDPR and governable choices.

With next step

Afterwards it is clear whether training, policy, inventory or evidence is needed.

Expertise and method behind this approach

The approach is built from AI governance, EU AI Act implementation and practical training rollout. AI literacy should not become a standalone awareness session, but an explainable combination of roles, risk, learning goals and evidence.
