AI Training for Finance Teams — Programme Overview

Your teams are already using AI. This course trains them to use it in a way that is documented, explainable, and traceable — satisfying all four EU AI Act obligations coming into force in August 2026. Participants build real AI agents during the session, using the tools already available in their environment. They leave with agents where every output cites its source and no result is acted on before a human has reviewed and approved it.

What the course covers

Literacy Understanding how AI tools work, where they are reliable, and where human judgement is required.

Transparency Making clear to users and affected persons that AI is involved, and producing outputs they can understand, question, and verify — including what sources were used and why the AI reached its conclusion.

Human oversight Structuring workflows so a human can monitor, verify, and intervene at each step of the process — not just approve a final output, but understand and check what the agent did at every stage.

Traceability Every output generated by the agent cites the source it drew from. The full chain of reasoning is logged and auditable.

What participants leave with

✓A working AI agent built during the session, using the tools already in their environment, deployable immediately

✓Outputs that are documented and explainable: every result cites its source, every step is logged

✓A human approval checkpoint wired into the agent: no output is acted on before a person has reviewed it

✓A certificate of completion per participant documenting training against all four EU AI Act obligations (Art. 4)

✓A session record showing what was covered, who attended, and when: ready for a CSSF inspection or internal audit

✓The ability to answer any auditor, regulator, or board member who asks: what did your teams use AI for, and who checked it
