Why AI governance demands practical skill

When theory meets organisational reality, most AI governance fails.

Theory isn't the hard part ...

Most professionals responsible for AI governance already understand the principles, risks and regulatory intent. 
The challenge is translating that knowledge into decisions, processes, and controls that work day-to-day, inside real organisations.

Governance exists on paper, not in practice

Policies, principles, and frameworks are often developed in isolation from how AI systems are actually designed, procured, deployed, and scaled.
Without clear roles, decision rights, and mechanisms, governance can't keep pace with real AI use.

Practitioners are left to figure it out alone

AI governance is frequently added to existing roles - legal, risk, compliance, data, technology - without the tools or structures to support it.
Practitioners end up designing governance from scratch, unsure whether what they’ve built would hold up to scrutiny.

Your Guide

James Kavanagh

James Kavanagh is an accomplished AI governance practitioner who has been grappling with the real challenges of governing AI long before it became a boardroom priority. He previously led governance and engineering programs at Microsoft and Amazon, with a blend of engineering and regulatory skill.  His work focuses on what governance looks like when operational AI systems need to be governed under regulatory scrutiny and operational pressure inside complex organisations. 

Through AI Career Pro, James helps professionals turn sound principles into workable practice, using the same structures, artefacts, and decision frameworks he has designed and applied in real-world settings.

“The AI training market is saturated with introductory courses that hover at a high level and never translate into real-world execution. They talk about governance, but don’t give you the tools to implement it.

AI Career Pro is completely different. It’s clear the curriculum was built by people who truly understand the job from the inside out. It moves beyond abstract concepts and focuses on the practical how-to of day-to-day operations.

That shift from theory to practice has been a game-changer for my consulting work. It gave me a concrete structure to operationalize AI governance for companies across LATAM—turning regulatory requirements into engineering realities.

If you want to understand how governance is actually built inside an organization, this is the place.”

AI Governance & Responsible AI Practitioner, USA
Having done my AIGP last year and now ready to sit my 42001 lead implementer exam, I wanted to shift from theory to having greater exposure to how governance best works in the real world. The AI Career Pro courses I have completed so far are amazing.
Certified AI Governance Professional, Australia
The courses combine theoretical knowledge with real-world examples and practice guidance. James makes complex concepts easy to understand and the program allows for immediate application of what I have learned.
