How the programme works

The cost of the accreditation programme depends on the size and complexity of your organisation. Please contact us for a tailored quote based on your specific needs and requirements.

Upon successful completion of the accreditation process, your organisation will receive formal approval and an exclusive AI Trust & Integrity Accreditation mark. This mark can be displayed on your website, marketing materials, and other communication channels to showcase your commitment to responsible AI practices.

The accreditation is an organisational level exercise, checking your ability to recognise, react to and execute confident decision making on questions of responsible-use across all AI projects. The exercise can cover decision-making for internal and back office use, or for customer-facing and product/service use.

The AI Trust & Integrity Accreditation is aimed at organisations that are AI users rather than companies who develop AI products as their core offering. We’re more than happy to help companies that are using AI as part of their offering. 

We’re especially delighted to assist organisations that operate in other markets than technology, but who recognise an urgent need to embrace this new technology to remain competitive, and want to demonstrate their commitment to doing things right.

The process

The accreditation process comprises a thorough evaluation of your organisation’s AI strategy, governance structure, and ethical considerations. Our team of experts will assess your organisation’s AI-related policies, procedures, and decision-making frameworks to ensure responsible and effective AI adoption.

The duration of the accreditation process varies depending on the size and complexity of your organisation. On average, the process takes between 2-4 months, which includes an initial assessment, a detailed review, and recommendations for improvements.

The AI Trust & Integrity Accreditation is valid for two years, after which your organisation will need to undergo a re-evaluation to maintain its accredited status. This process ensures that your organisation continues to adhere to best practices and stays up-to-date with the latest trends and regulations in the field of AI.

Other questions

The AI Trust & Integrity Accreditation is specifically designed to focus on the organisational requirements for the responsible adoption of AI in businesses. While ISO and IEEE standards may focus on the audit of specific systems or engineering processes, the AI Trust & Integrity Accreditation checks all aspects of your organisation – training, culture, tools and reward alignment, for example – alongside the more familiar governance, risk and compliance capability.

No. The accreditation does not audit individual AI systems or pipelines. Instead the Accreditation assesses your organisation’s readiness to adopt AI technologies in a way that enables informed, intentional decisions on responsible use and managed risk of unintended outcomes.
