Agentic AI Safety Readiness Program

Bringing Agentic AI Safely and Responsibly into Business Operations

As AI agents and agentic AI systems become more widely adopted, the requirements for governance, transparency and control are increasing. Unlike conventional AI applications, these systems can act autonomously, use external tools and execute complex sequences of tasks independently. This creates new challenges around accountability, traceability and risk management.

Organisations face the challenge of:

• assessing the risks of autonomous AI systems appropriately
• establishing suitable control mechanisms
• building governance structures for AI agents
• addressing regulatory requirements
• ensuring transparency and effective human oversight.

At the same time, the EU AI Act, trustworthy AI and international standards for AI management systems are becoming increasingly important. Organisations therefore need a solid understanding of these requirements to introduce Agentic AI safely, responsibly and with confidence.

Building Capabilities for Trustworthy Agentic AI Systems

The Agentic AI Safety Readiness Program provides the knowledge required to understand the opportunities, risks and requirements of autonomous AI systems. Its goal is to help organisations develop a safe, controlled and responsible Agentic AI strategy..

The program covers key topics including:

• Fundamentals and operating principles of Agentic AI
• Differences compared with conventional AI systems
• Use cases for AI agents and multi-agent systems
• Safety and governance requirements
• Human oversight and control mechanisms
• Transparency, traceability and accountability
• Risk assessment for agentic systems
• Requirements arising from the EU AI Act and ISO/IEC 42001
• Building sustainable governance structures for AI agents

Participants develop a solid understanding of how to deploy autonomous AI solutions safely and gain practical guidance for future implementation and governance decisions.

Benefits of the Agentic AI Safety Readiness Program

More Insights on Agentic AI, Governance and Regulatory Requirements

Agentic AI refers to AI systems that can pursue goals, make decisions and take actions autonomously. These systems often use external data sources, software tools or other agents to perform complex tasks.

Controlling these systems requires new safety and oversight concepts. These include Human-in-the-Loop, Human-on-the-Loop and Human-in-Command approaches, allowing people to monitor decision-making processes or intervene when necessary. Monitoring, logging and robust governance structures are also becoming increasingly important.

Regulatory requirements are becoming increasingly relevant for organisations. Depending on the risk category, the EU AI Act requires specific organisational and technical measures. In addition, the international ISO/IEC 42001 standard provides a framework for establishing and operating AI management systems. Addressing these requirements early creates a solid foundation for the responsible and sustainable use of AI.
