⏭️New AI Resource Alert!
We’re excited to share a new online resource for non-profit leaders:
AI Governance for Non-Profits

In our Day 2 keynote at the BC Non-Profit Leadership Conference, Nerissa Allen challenged non-profit leaders to see digital transformation and the adoption of AI tools not as a technical function but as a governance responsibility.

As AI tools rapidly enter non-profit workplaces, having the right oversight, policies, and practices in place is more important than ever.

Designed for executive directors and board members in BC, this practical resource includes:
✅ Steps to build out strong AI governance
✅ A customizable policy template
✅ An operational procedures template

👉https://thevantagepoint.ca/project/ai-governance-and-operational-policy-and-procedures-template/?utm_campaign=meetedgar&utm_medium=social&utm_source=meetedgar.com
