AI Literacy – Data Protection and EU AI Act Awareness (Article 4)
Mandatory AI literacy training under the EU AI Act. Effective. Verifiable. Audit-ready.
Programme Overview
With the entry into force of the EU Artificial Intelligence Act, AI literacy is no longer a best practice — it is a legal obligation.
Under Article 4 of the EU AI Act, organisations must ensure that employees, managers, and decision-makers who use, oversee, or are affected by AI systems possess an adequate level of AI literacy, tailored to their role and the risks involved.
This CPD-accredited AI Literacy training enables organisations and professionals to demonstrate compliance, strengthen risk awareness, and ensure responsible, lawful use of AI in everyday professional environments.
Why AI Literacy Is Now Mandatory
AI systems increasingly influence decisions involving people, personal data, and fundamental rights.
Insufficient understanding of AI risks can expose organisations to:
• regulatory sanctions
• GDPR non-compliance
• liability for automated or biased decisions
• reputational and operational damage
AI literacy is therefore a core compliance and duty-of-care requirement, closely linked to data protection, governance, and human oversight.
Key Learnings – What Participants Will Gain
• Understand AI fundamentals, including generative AI and automated decision-making
• Gain clarity on EU AI Act obligations, with a specific focus on Article 4 (AI Literacy)

• Recognise key risks such as bias, lack of transparency, over-reliance on AI outputs, and accountability gaps
• Apply human oversight and risk-aware decision-making in daily work

All content is role-aware, practical, and non-technical.
