Suits mid-career policy and public sector professionals who want a grounding in how AI is used and regulated in government, with case studies of failures. What stands out is the academic credit: five Master's level credits from a four-week online module. The main caveat is entry: a 2:1 degree plus three years' relevant experience, or five years without one, and a £1,350 fee. A free alternative is Elements of AI's Ethics of AI.
