Suits finance and financial services staff in risk, compliance, banking, insurance or wealth management who need grounding in AI ethics and governance. What stands out is the CPD certificate co-branded by ACCA and CISI for £150, or £120 for ACCA members. The main caveat is that study hours are not stated on the ACCA page and the course is about ethics rather than using AI tools. A free alternative is Ethics of AI from Elements of AI.
