AI literacy for the financial sector
Since 1 February 2025, the EU AI Act requires financial institutions that use or develop artificial intelligence to ensure that their employees are AI literate. Employees need to understand what AI is, how it can be utilized, and how to interpret its outcomes. This AI literacy training provides financial institutions with all the knowledge required to comply with the AI legislation and work more effectively with AI.
We cover the fundamentals—what AI is, how it works, and why it is so important—alongside the challenges and opportunities this technology brings. Upon completing our training, you will be able to assess risks, interpret AI outcomes, understand its impact on people, and navigate the relevant legislation for AI systems.
The objectives of this training are to:
- equip participants with a solid understanding of AI fundamentals and its real-world applications;
- enable participants to assess and manage AI-related risks, including bias and ethical concerns;
- foster the ability to interpret AI outputs and make informed decisions using AI;
- provide practical guidelines for working safely and effectively with AI systems.

Methodologie
An ‘E-learning - webinar on demand’ is 100% self-study. It is a specific form of E-learning, similar to ‘deferred viewing’: you log in individually to the MyFA learning platform and watch a pre-recorded webinar (video format). You can do so where, when and as often as you like. There is no interaction possible with the lecturer. The learning material consists of the video and any additional items (syllabus, presentation, practice questions and test,...)
Training material: interactive module with video
