Management & board
What the AI Act changes for the organisation, which decisions are yours, what to ask vendors and teams.
AI-literacy & AI Act training — <span class="text-accent dark:text-white">Article 4, done properly</span>
Since 2 February 2025 the EU AI Act requires every organisation that uses AI to ensure its staff have a sufficient level of AI literacy. One session, tailored to your sector and your tools, gives your people the understanding the Act expects — and gives you the record to show for it.
Who it is for
Three audiences, one obligation
Staff using AI tools
What general-purpose AI can and cannot do, what may never go into a public chatbot, how to use your approved tools well.
Teams deploying AI
Risk classes, deployer obligations, human oversight, documentation — the practical checklist for projects.
Why now
AI literacy is a legal duty, not a nice-to-have
Article 4 of the EU AI Act has applied since 2 February 2025: providers and deployers must take measures to ensure a sufficient level of AI literacy of their staff and other persons operating AI systems on their behalf — taking into account their technical knowledge, experience, education and the context the systems are used in. There is no prescribed certificate; what counts is that you took proportionate measures and can show them. A documented session is the simplest credible one.
What we cover
Five modules, adapted to your sector
The AI Act in 30 minutes
Risk classes, timelines, who is provider and who is deployer — and what that means for you.
How generative AI actually works
Enough to judge its answers: training data, hallucinations, confidentiality, where the data goes.
Your rules of use
Your AI-usage policy made concrete: approved tools, forbidden inputs, review duties — with your examples.
Sector cases and pitfalls
Real situations from your sector — finance, legal, healthcare, public sector, industry, professional services.
Oversight and documentation
Human oversight, logging, incident handling and what to keep in the file — for teams that run AI systems.

- One-page “rules of use” summary for participants
- Optional follow-up Q&A session a month later
Questions
Is a certificate required by the AI Act?
No. Article 4 requires measures ensuring a sufficient level of AI literacy, proportionate to the context; it does not prescribe a certificate. You receive a session record you can keep as evidence of the measure.
Who delivers the session?
Mohamed Ben Haddou, founder of Mentis and Independent AI Expert for the European Commission — or a senior Mentis consultant for additional groups.
Can it be combined with the AI Act compliance service or the assessment?
Yes. Many clients run the session right after the AI-system inventory, so examples come from their own systems. It is also a natural follow-up to the AI Readiness Assessment.
In which languages?
French or English; materials in the language of the session.
Training
Article 4 asks for AI literacy — we run the session
Half-day awareness or full-day practitioner training, tailored to your sector and your policy, delivered by an Independent AI Expert for the European Commission.
