Lead facilitator
AIR APAC provides the lead facilitator, who is named in your course proposal. Later deliveries can also be led by your training provider's own facilitator.
AI now screens, ranks and summarises people. This one-day programme teaches managers to test what an AI ranking or summary leaves out, check a process for fairness, and own and explain the decision.
Human resources (HR) leaders, hiring managers and talent teams.
One day.
In person, led by a facilitator. Participants practise workplace decisions on StepSim, the AIR APAC decision simulator built by Exeter Labs.
A Record of Completion for each participant who completes the programme. A separate, optional assessment can lead to certification under AIRS-J/1, the AIR APAC Standard for Judgment in AI-Enabled Work. The certification is valid for two years and verified free on a public register.
Run for your group, with case files written for your sector. Dates are agreed in the proposal.
AI now screens, ranks and summarises people. Decisions about people carry legal, fairness and trust risk. The manager carries that risk, not the AI tool.
STEP (Structure, Test, Engage, Perform) is the method every AIR Academy programme teaches. It is four questions a manager asks before acting on an AI answer. The four questions come from AIRS-J/1, the AIR APAC Standard for Judgment in AI-Enabled Work.
One day, on fictional candidate and staff files. Participants test an AI ranking or summary for what it leaves out. They check whether a hiring or promotion process treats some groups unfairly, and practise explaining a people decision they own.

Fictional candidate and staff files written for the programme, with AI screening rankings and summaries to test.
AIRS-J/1, the AIR APAC Standard for Judgment in AI-Enabled Work. The programme focuses on testing a ranking or summary (Test), telling candidates and staff what they are entitled to know (Engage), and owning the decision (Perform).
AIR APAC provides the lead facilitator, who is named in your course proposal. Later deliveries can also be led by your training provider's own facilitator.
AIR APAC certifies facilitators under section 20.6 of AIRS-J/1. Training providers can send their trainers to the facilitator programme. If your organisation has its own rules for who may train your staff, tell us in the enquiry.
| What | What it is | In this programme |
|---|---|---|

The proposal sets out the arrangements. |
No. The exercises use fictional case files. Where participants work on their own tasks, they use only an AI tool their organisation permits for that information, remove identifying and confidential details first, or use a fictional version instead. Nothing they show in the session is kept or recorded, and it is never used for certification. Your organisation receives these conditions before the programme starts.
Cases are set in your sector and under your country’s rules. Tell us which in your request. With your organisation’s written consent, cases can also be based on your own organisation. Programmes run in English. If your group needs another language, name it in your request.
The facilitated editions are led in person. Group size, and any live online option, are agreed in the proposal.
Each group receives a quoted price in its proposal. The price depends on the edition, the number of participants, the location, and whether the certification edition is included. No group has completed this programme yet. Case files are written for your sector and your group, and the start date is agreed in the proposal.
Each edition opens with a StepSim Practice mission played the usual way and closes with an unseen mission of the same kind. You see what changed in how your group checks AI work. The written outputs are listed under What your organisation receives. This shows change during the programme, not results at work.
No regulator, university or professional body recognises this credential. ISO/IEC 17024 is a design reference only. AIRS-J/1 certification is issued by AIR APAC under a public standard. See the credentials table.
This programme does not cover that use.
AIRS-J/1 is the AIR APAC Standard for Judgment in AI-Enabled Work. It is public, with a published rubric and scoring rules, and a named Review Board governs it. It defines the four areas the programme teaches.
You keep your client. Training providers own the client relationship and invoice the client directly. AIR APAC supplies the programme design, case files written for your client’s sector, StepSim Practice missions and, for your first delivery, the lead facilitator. You agree the fit to your client, the subject expert who co-facilitates, and the commercial terms directly with AIR APAC. Facilitators who want to run StepSim sessions in their own programmes can join the facilitator programme.
