AI Governance Best Practices for Legal Teams

2025 is meant to be the "Year of AI Agents" and while everyone has started using that term, it doesn't mean your AI governance program is falling behind. In this course, we will define AI agents for the purpose integrating AI agents into your AI governance program.

Introducing Regulating AI Agents

On the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, I decided to host an event on LinkedIn about how to respond to a customer when they want to know about your AI trust and safety aka AI governance process. In this webinar, I provide some helpful tips about how to respond to these customer inquiries, where to add language if you use AI in your product and what customers really care about. This webinar is just a small component of the course I am offering on Maven called "Implement AI Governance." Space is limited!

Implement AI Governance

Attorney

There is no doubt that 2025 will be the year for AI governance. Get started. Actually, forget about just getting started, let's fully build your program in 3 weeks! This packed course will be your forcing function to roll out a fully developed AI governance program, getting your company in compliance and moving fast! Since 2015, I have been focused on AI governance. As the General Counsel at an AI company who offered computer vision technology (think the eyes of the AI), I knew from the day I took that job that my primary focus was incorporating ethical AI practices into the company's core mission. In fact, I demanded that "Responsibility" was one of our core values! And I built a robust program that included diverse stakeholders from around the entire organization, principles, policies, regular meetings, product interventions and a Board committee charter. I know how hard it is to implement governance and also how critical it is when it comes to AI technologies. I am taking all that knowledge and all those learnings and giving them to you. In this course, you will accomplish in 3 weeks what it took me 3 years to build. I have templates that I will provide to you and we will customize them during the course. If you are struggling to make time to add AI governance into your multi-hat wearing position, then I understand! My goal is to use our time together as efficiently as possible so that you will walk away with a tangible benefit. If you are ready to start implementing an AI governance program, then you are in the right place. Here is what sets this course apart: 🐲 Access to a list of over 50 AI governance frameworks and standards. 🐲 Policies! Whether you want one policy that you roll out to your entire company or one per business unit. ($1500 value) 🐲 AI Risk assessments templates that you can customize for your own use to manage AI vendors. ($1500 value) 🐲 How to develop trust and compliance and prove it to your customers. (priceless) 🐲 Employee surveys so you can evaluate the ROI of your AI tools and your governance program. ($299 value) 🐲 and maybe a custom AI Governance GPT...

How to Conduct a Gap Analysis

A template for drafting your company's core principles and how to use them to inspire all employees when they are using AI for company purposes.

No governance program is complete without policies! You will have a great template from which to build your own policies and we will spend class time revising them.

AI Policies

You will leave with at least one questionnaire, whether you want to use it to assess AI vendors or self assess your conformity to the EU AI Act or other standards and regulations.

AI Assessments

Training ideas for your colleagues and employees and the method to measure the success of AI in your organization.

Maintaining AI Governance

Of course you are. For the last decade, I have immersed myself in AI technology, first as the General Counsel at a computer vision company called Clarifai and then as the founder of a GenAI company called ClearOPS. Throughout this journey, I have built ethics programs, contemplated licensing and copyright legal issues and navigated the complexity that is AI. I have also led several courses on AI governance since being in the first class to take the AIGP exam. Due to demand, I have distilled all my learnings into a special class just for you. In 90 minutes, we will cover: 🐲 Policies! Whether you want one policy that you roll out to your entire company or one per business unit. ($1500 value) 🐲 AI Risk assessments templates that you can customize for your own use to manage AI vendors. ($1500 value) 🐲 Presenting to the Board? I got you. (this one is priceless) 🐲 AI Agents - what they are and how to control them. 🐲 AI Addendum drafting and procurement strategies. (bonus)

2025 was predicted to be the year of AI agents and it certainly seems to be true based on the marketing. However, the term "agent" means something different to different people. In this course, we will explore what an AI agent means today and how companies are building them right now. Once we learn how they are built, then you can govern them. If you have not built an AI governance program yet, don't worry, we will cover this as an ad hoc specific use case. But if you have, this course will incorporate the governance of AI agents into your existing program. In this course we will: 🐲 Explore different terms used to describe AI products and services; 🐲 Explore a few solutions available on the market today; 🐲 Discuss why AI agents are different when it comes to the risks involved; 🐲 Add AI agents to your AI governance program for seamless, yet effective, responsible AI use. If you don't have an AI governance program, I will provide you with the information you need to regulate AI agents. This course is not theoretical. It is a practical exploration of available tools on the market and where AI tools are headed into the future.

Learn about AI agents and how to regulate them.

As a special interest class, this is a one-time course for those who are regulating AI and want to do a deeper dive on AI agents.

In Person Virtual Class

The Short Course Schedule

This course is for AI Governance professionals ready to incorporate AI agents into their programs.

Lawyers. Because we are subject to rules of professional responsibility, you have to understand the technology before you use it.

This course is a good idea for Product leaders and ML engineers because we will dive into what AI agents responsible companies cannot buy.

Getting away from marketing lingo, by defining an AI agent, you can identify it and regulate it.

A meaningful definition of AI agents

We will spend class time looking at what is available on the market today.

Exploration of AI agents currently available

There are at least 6 components of an AI agent that you must evaluate to determine if an AI agent fits into your AI governance program.

Guidelines for adopting AI agents

We will evaluate legal liability and professional ethics of using AI agents

Liability, ethics and AI agents
