Why now

AI compliance is no longer
optional — it's mandatory

Feb 2, 2025

Duty of AI literacy

Article 4 already requires companies that provide or use AI systems to ensure their staff have a sufficient level of AI literacy. Training is the most direct way to meet this requirement.

€35M / 7%

Deterrent penalties

Prohibited AI practices carry fines of up to €35 million or 7% of global annual turnover. Other violations can cost up to €15 million or 3%.

Aug 2, 2026

General application

Most of the regulation becomes applicable, including the detailed obligations for high-risk AI systems. Organizations that prepare in advance will gain a head start.

The AI Act applies to all organizations that use AI — not just those that develop it. A simple customer chatbot, a resume-screening tool, or a generative AI assistant is enough to trigger obligations.

FAQ

Your questions, our answers

Is my company really affected by the AI Act?

Very likely. The regulation applies as soon as you provide or use an AI system within the European Union: chatbot, resume-screening tool, scoring, generative AI… Company size doesn't exempt you, although some obligations are eased for SMEs.

Is the training suitable for non-lawyers and non-technical people?

Yes, that's its primary goal. Every legal concept is translated into concrete situations, and every technical concept is explained simply. The advanced modules then let legal or technical profiles go further.

What's the difference between e-learning and video classes?

The content covered is identical. E-learning is self-paced and independent. The video formats add a live trainer, discussion, and case studies built around your own use of AI — either one-on-one or in groups of up to 12 participants.

Does the certificate have official value?

The certificate is issued by Mirtillo and confirms that the training was completed and the final assessment passed. It serves as useful evidence to document the AI literacy obligation (Article 4), though it is not a state diploma or a regulatory certification.

How much time should I plan for?

Plan for 7 to 8 hours of training in total. In e-learning, most participants spread this out over two to three weeks. In video class format, the course is generally organized into 3 or 4 sessions.

Do you offer support after the training?

Yes. After completing the course, Mirtillo and Digital-ZEN can support you with implementation: mapping your AI systems, drafting your internal policy, or conducting a compliance audit. Get in touch via the contact form.
