Training objectives

This course has been developed for IEEE CertifAIEd Authorized Assessors who perform assessments or review cases for certification in AI Ethics.

Participants will learn to assess Autonomous and Intelligent Systems (AIS) for their conformity to ethical privacy, transparency, accountability, and algorithmic bias criteria required by the IEEE CertifAIEd Program.
This training is an integral first step to become recognized as an IEEE CertifAIEd Authorized Assessor.

Who is the training for?

There are no prerequisites for attending the training, however, participants with a background in ethics, artificial intelligence, standards, certification programs and conformity assessment will benefit most.


Participation is encouraged for those interested in advancing their knowledge in AI Ethics Certification, including: 
Compliance Officers, Governance Managers, Business Analyst, AI Engineer, Machine Learning Engineer, Data Analyst, Data Engineer, Data Scientist, Data Architect, Product Managers, Technology Consultants, Data Protection Managers, Quality Managers, Risk Managers, Software Developers, System Administrators, Purchasing Managers, Management Consultants, Information Security Managers, Process Auditors

Why CertifAIEd™ training?

This training is developed as a part of IEEE’s approach to Ethics in AIS. 
Participants will learn about the importance of a mark that distinguishes achieving ethical criteria for AIS products, services, and systems, how to assess the ethicality of an AIS, and how to get it recognized in the field with a mark of ethics that meet ethical criteria.
  • IEEE CertifAIEd offers a comprehensive suite of criteria to evaluate and assess AIS products, services, or systems against specific ethical requirements to foster trust and advance technology for the benefit of humanity.
  • It offers a framework to contextualise AI Ethics criteria for an application helping to deliver a more trustworthy experience for users.

Successful completion of the IEEE CertifAIEd  Authorized Assessor training is an essential aspect of becoming an IEEE CertifAIEd Authorized Ecosystem Collaborator.

From initial awareness to in-depth understanding of certification criteria, the methodology and the ecosystem, you will:
  • undergo training in the key principles of AI Ethics and the IEEE CertifAIEd criteria and certification process
  • obtain a deep understanding of how to scrutinize products, services, and systems from an ethical perspective
  • learn about the importance of having a mark that distinguishes AIS products, services, and systems that meet ethical criteria
  • gain knowledge of the fundamental concepts and processes that are the basis of profiling, assessment, and certification activities
