More than 100 students have successfully completed the free course on AI ethics and law. Here are some of their reactions:
“I am pleased to have successfully completed the semester-long AI Officer Training Course at the Institute for Information, Telecommunications, and Media Law (ITM) at the University of Münster.
Many thanks to Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoeren and all the lecturers for the valuable insights and engaging discussions on the legal and practical aspects of AI—from AI compliance and AI literacy to ethics, information security, the Data Act, and civil liability.
Continuous learning and exchanging ideas with peers are essential—and a valuable complement to my practical work as an AI Governance Expert at UNIQA. 📚⚖️🤝”
“Learned something new again 😊
I have successfully completed the optional AI Officer training program at the Institute for Information, Telecommunications, and Media Law (ITM) at the University of Münster.
The topics range from the AI Act and the Data Act to AI governance, information security, and liability issues. Many of these are topics I deal with on a daily basis in my professional life.
I would like to extend my special thanks to Thomas Hoeren and the entire ITM team for the engaging courses and practical insights.”
“I’m proud to share that I’ve completed the “AI Officer” certification program at the University of Münster, under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoeren! 🎊✨
This credential lies precisely at the intersection where I’ve built my career: the space between the legal and technical worlds. As a legal counsel dealing with AI governance on a daily basis and a PhD researcher working on AI literacy and biometric technologies, I keep coming back to the same conviction: someone has to be present in the room where both sides are talking to ensure they’re actually on the same page.
This is another step toward becoming the “human API” between the people who build AI systems and those responsible for governing them.
“I’m grateful to Prof. Hoeren and the University of Münster team for a truly rigorous program. I’ve learned so much!”
“I am very pleased to share the news that I have successfully completed the continuing education program to become an AI Officer at the Institute for Information, Telecommunications, and Media Law (ITM) at the University of Münster. Under the direction of Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoeren , I was able to specifically expand and deepen my knowledge at the intersection of artificial intelligence, law, and compliance. I am grateful for the valuable insights and look forward to applying this knowledge in practice!”
