Certified Ethical Emerging Technologist (CEET)
A five-day programme on ethical practice in emerging technology, covering ethical frameworks, AI bias and fairness, privacy and surveillance assessment, transparency and accountability, impact assessment, and ethics governance.
Introduction
The Certified Ethical Emerging Technologist (CEET) Training Course prepares technology and governance professionals to bring ethics into the design, deployment, and oversight of emerging technologies. Artificial intelligence, biometrics, autonomous systems, and connected devices deliver real value, but they also create risks of bias, surveillance, misinformation, and harm. This course builds the judgement and the practical tools to identify those risks and address them before they cause damage. It covers ethical frameworks, data ethics, privacy, algorithmic fairness, and governance. Furthermore, it applies responsible design methods and assurance practices. As a result, participants become the professionals organisations rely on to deploy technology responsibly.
