Explore the new Guidance for AI Adoption from the National Artificial Intelligence Centre (NAIC) in using AI safely 

In this session recorded in November 2025, explore the new Guidance for AI Adoption from the National Artificial Intelligence Centre (NAIC) in using AI safely & effectively while meeting the 2025 SRTO expectations on governance, risk & outcomes. Built on national and international ethics principles, it sets out 6 essential practices that build learner trust, protect assessment integrity, improve service delivery & give leaders a clear roadmap through a complex governance landscape.

Foundations — for RTOs beginning AI adoption, using AI in low-risk ways, or personnel new to AI governance

Implementation practices — for providers developing or integrating AI across multiple functions or operating in higher-risk contexts

Start across all 6 practices to establish baseline responsible AI governance. As your use grows or capability matures, step into Implementation practices for detailed how-to. Apply organisation-wide practices where relevant, and system-specific checks to each AI use case, for example marking assistance, learner support chatbots, timetabling or candidate screening. Document everything so you are audit-ready and can learn & improve over time.

What we cover

 Clear accountability that aligns with 2025 SRTO including a named AI governance owner, an AI policy, and system-level ownership

 Practical impact assessment, feedback & redress pathways for learners, employers & personnel

 AI-specific risk management 

 Transparency for learners and stakeholders including an AI Register covering capabilities, limitations & testing evidence

 Proportionate testing, monitoring & data/cyber measures that protect assessment integrity and student safety

 Meaningful human oversight with defined intervention and decommissioning pathways for high-stakes decisions

The best part was gaining an overview of the breadth of implementation requirements
Understanding how it is still early & that it will develop more & more over time
The importance of developing strategies to deal with it
Systematic approach & the takaways
The Takeaways as always well supported the learning undertaken in the workshop
Phill always brings a level of detailed understanding to the topic that gives me high confidence that the guidance is valid,
well backed in policy & expectations & can be used to steer my RTO forwards
I have attended other similar AI sessions, however this one provided so many more takeaways & supportive templates
& covered the focus in a much more valuable "why" way for me
The final bit about the sherrif etc did help bring it all together really well - loved the analogy!
Thanks Phill, very informative & a bit scary :)
