AI Deep Dive: AI, Compliance, and Data Governance Lab

Join Us Virtually

The AFIT AI Deep-Dive Workshop Series is the applied, tactical complement to the monthly AI Community of Practice. Where the CoP focuses on strategic conversation — how AI reshapes institutional thinking, governance, and culture — the Deep Dive sessions focus on implementation: specific tools, practical workflows, and campus-ready techniques that participants can put to work. Each month's session description includes a Tools section listing any software or platforms that will be used during the session. Participants who want a hands-on experience can install or access these tools in advance and follow along in real time. However, hands-on participation is entirely optional — every session is designed so that those who prefer to watch, listen, and ask questions will get full value from the discussion and live demonstrations.

A working session on aligning AI use with legal, regulatory, and data governance frameworks. Participants will review emerging AI policy templates (acceptable use, model risk, data classification), work through mock scenarios involving student/employee data and vendor contracts, and develop a short list of governance actions to take back to their institutions.

This is a working session using whatever LLM participants currently have access to (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, or any institutional tool). No special software installation required. Participants will work through mock AI governance scenarios and draft policy responses using their AI assistant. The facilitator will also demonstrate an AI vendor evaluation tool designed for higher education governance and information security requirements. Bring your institution's current AI acceptable use policy (or a note that you don't have one yet — that's useful information too).
