Artificial Intelligence in Learning, Development and HR

Artificial intelligence has reached the people function through screening tools, learning platforms and content generation, and its risks there are unusually concentrated because the decisions affect individuals directly. This course covers using it responsibly. Delegates work through where these tools genuinely help, including content drafting, learning personalisation and administrative load, and where they do not. Screening and selection receive the most attention, since a model trained on past hiring decisions reproduces past bias at speed and scale. Data protection, explainability and the right to a human decision are covered against POPIA and comparable regimes, and the course closes on evaluating a vendor claim past the demonstration.
