EU AI Act Putting the AI Regulation into Practice

Work on the EU AI Act starts with a list: which AI systems does your organisation use, and which does it offer? Each system then gets its role, such as whether you provide it or use it yourselves, and its risk class. Those two settle the obligations and their deadlines. The last step decides who is responsible internally and which authority supervises. In this training you take these steps with the text of the regulation and with case examples.

Fit

Who this module is designed for

Typical roles

  • You are responsible for compliance, data protection or legal and have to bring the EU AI Act into your organisation.
  • On an AI governance board or as AI officer, you settle who is responsible for which AI system.
  • As a product or IT lead, you introduce AI systems or offer them to customers.

Prerequisites

No prerequisites

You can start right away. Helpful: basic knowledge of AI.

Consider instead AIGP For AI governance beyond the EU AI Act, with an exam run by the IAPP.

Curriculum

EU AI Act Training in Detail

The five parts follow the order in which an organisation builds its work on the EU AI Act: the logic of the regulation first, then roles and risk classes, then the obligations, supervision and finally the structure in your own organisation. The basis is the text of the regulation as amended in 2026.

01Structure and logic of the regulation

This part shows how the EU AI Act is built and what it covers.

  • Objectives and scope
  • The risk-based approach: the higher the risk, the more obligations
  • The timeline of application after amending Regulation (EU) 2026/1744
02Roles and risk classes

Here you place an AI system twice: by your organisation's role and by its risk.

  • Provider, deployer, importer and distributor
  • Prohibited practices
  • High-risk systems under Annex III (use areas such as employment) and Annex I (AI in regulated products)
  • Transparency obligations and general-purpose AI models
03Deriving obligations

From role and risk class you derive what has to be done.

  • High-risk systems: risk management, data, documentation, human oversight
  • AI literacy under Article 4 as amended in July 2026
  • Transparency under Article 50
04Supervision and penalties

This part sets out who enforces the regulation and what an infringement can cost.

  • Market surveillance in Germany: the Bundesnetzagentur under the KI-MIG
  • Sector exceptions such as BaFin for financial services
  • Ranges of fines and enforcement
05AI compliance in the organisation

Finally, you put the individual steps together into one structure.

  • The AI inventory as the starting point
  • Classification and responsibilities per system
  • Links to data protection, information security and ISO/IEC 42001

Outcome

What you will be able to do afterwards

  1. 01

    You explain the structure, scope and timeline of the EU AI Act as amended in 2026.

  2. 02

    You determine whether your organisation is provider, deployer, importer or distributor of an AI system.

  3. 03

    You place AI systems in a risk class, from prohibited practices to systems with no specific obligations.

  4. 04

    You derive the specific obligations and their deadlines from role and risk class.

  5. 05

    You name the competent supervisory authority in Germany and the range of fines for an infringement.

  6. 06

    You plan an AI inventory and assign responsibility for classifying each system.

  7. 07

    You connect the requirements with data protection, information security and ISO/IEC 42001.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

01We only buy AI tools. Does the EU AI Act still affect us?
Usually yes: an organisation in the EU that uses an AI system under its own authority for professional purposes is a deployer under Article 3 of the EU AI Act, unless one of the regulation's exclusions applies. Which obligations follow depends on the system's risk class, and the tecnovy EU AI Act training has you practise exactly that classification on case examples.
02When do the obligations of the EU AI Act apply?
As of November 2026, the prohibitions in Article 5 have applied since 2 February 2025, and two added in 2026 apply from 2 December 2026. The transparency obligations in Article 50 have applied since 2 August 2026; providers of generative systems already on the market before then have until 2 December 2026 to meet the marking duty in Article 50(2). The obligations for high-risk AI systems apply from 2 December 2027 for use areas such as employment in Annex III and from 2 August 2028 for AI in regulated products in Annex I, and the tecnovy EU AI Act training works with exactly this state of the law.
03Does the EU AI Act training cover the AI literacy duty in Article 4?
That is your organisation's decision: since its replacement on 27 July 2026, Article 4 requires providers and deployers to take measures that support the AI literacy of their staff and of others who operate or use AI systems on their behalf, without guaranteeing any particular level for any individual. The tecnovy EU AI Act training can be one such measure; which measures to take and what to record about them is for the organisation to decide.
04What fines does the EU AI Act provide for?
As of November 2026, fines reach up to EUR 35 million or 7 % of worldwide annual turnover for prohibited practices, up to EUR 15 million or 3 % for certain obligations such as those of providers, deployers and under Article 50, and up to EUR 7.5 million or 1 % for incorrect information to authorities, whichever is higher in each case. For SMEs the lower amount applies, and for small mid-cap enterprises the same holds for the two lower tiers. Member States lay down the detailed penalty rules; in the tecnovy EU AI Act training you match infringements to these tiers.
05Which authority supervises the EU AI Act in Germany?
In Germany, the AI Market Surveillance and Innovation Promotion Act (KI-MIG), in force since 29 July 2026, makes the Bundesnetzagentur (Federal Network Agency) the market surveillance authority unless that law provides otherwise. BaFin, the federal financial supervisor, is responsible for AI directly linked to regulated financial services at firms it supervises, and Länder authorities cover public bodies of the Länder and certain media. The tecnovy EU AI Act training covers these responsibilities for Germany.
07How far does the EU AI Act training go into technical implementation?
The tecnovy EU AI Act training derives obligations such as risk management, documentation and human oversight for high-risk systems and assigns them. How those obligations are implemented technically in systems is not part of the training.
08Does the EU AI Act training end with an exam?
No, the tecnovy EU AI Act training has no exam; with at least 80 % attendance you receive the tecnovy certificate of participation. It documents your attendance, not a certification.
09How does the EU AI Act training differ from the AIGP training?
The tecnovy EU AI Act training stays with the EU AI Act and putting it into practice in your organisation, and ends without an exam. The tecnovy AIGP training reaches further, into privacy law, the NIST AI RMF and ISO standards, and prepares you for the IAPP's AIGP exam, whose fee is charged separately.
