Course Overview

Artificial Intelligence initiatives depend fundamentally on the quality, reliability, completeness, and governance of the data used to train, operate, and evaluate AI systems. Poor-quality data can lead to inaccurate insights, biased outcomes, unreliable predictions, operational inefficiencies, and inappropriate business decisions. This course focuses on the management responsibility for ensuring that data is fit for AI-driven applications and organizational decision-making. The programme provides managers and business leaders with a practical understanding of the relationship between data quality and AI performance without requiring advanced technical or programming knowledge. Participants will explore data quality dimensions, ownership, accountability, governance, validation, data risks, and organizational controls that support reliable AI adoption. The course also examines how management can establish clear data ownership and accountability, define quality standards, monitor data quality indicators, address data issues, and integrate data quality into AI strategy and business processes. Particular attention is given to the risks created when organizations deploy AI without adequate data quality controls. Through practical exercises, business scenarios, and management-focused frameworks, participants will develop the ability to assess data quality risks, establish responsibilities, prioritize improvement initiatives, and build sustainable data quality practices that support trustworthy and effective AI.
