AI at the attempto Academy: Navigating the Future with the EU AI Act

AI at the attempto Academy: Navigating the Future with the EU AI Act

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is fundamentally transforming the world of work - and attempto is actively shaping this change. Our attempto Academy provides an AI-powered platform that specifically develops competencies in working with this key technology. We always keep regulatory requirements in focus: the EU AI Act sets new standards that companies will need to meet in the future (Article 4 of the EU AI Act). attempto addresses these challenges with a comprehensive AI basic training that covers all relevant aspects from legal requirements to ethical conduct.

The attempto Academy: More Than Just Professional Development

Since launching the attempto Academy, we have been creating a platform for our employees and external partners that goes far beyond traditional continuing education. Here we plan training sessions, implement mentoring programs, and offer hands-on AI workshops for external participants. The Academy not only uses AI technologies but also empowers our team to apply them responsibly and safely - in line with the requirements of the EU AI Act (Competence in dealing with AI systems).

AI Basic Training: Knowledge That Makes the Difference

Our AI basic training imparts solid knowledge about the EU AI Act and ensures that employees can work with AI both practically and ethically. The training is structured into three core areas:

  1. Legal framework and obligations Teaching the regulatory requirements that apply when using AI systems
  2. Practical use of AI tools Introduction to the safe and efficient use of AI tools such as ChatGPT, other AI-based applications, and GitHub Copilot, supplemented by examples from attempto projects
  3. Ethical challenges and risk management Raising awareness of ethical issues, supported by practical case studies and risk management methods

Why the EU AI Act Is Relevant for attempto

The EU AI Act lays the foundation for the use of AI systems in Europe. Companies are required to train their employees accordingly (Requirements for companies). For attempto as an IT consulting company with AI-powered projects, this requirement is particularly relevant. Our training programs ensure compliance with legal standards, address transparency obligations for tools like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot, and establish processes for accountability in AI model-based applications. Additionally, we promote training of proprietary models through our AI cohort.

Goals of Our AI Training

The AI basic training pursues four overarching goals:

  • Ensure legal compliance: meeting legal standards and regulatory requirements
  • Build competencies: enabling more efficient work processes through solid AI knowledge
  • Strengthen trust: confidence in working with AI technologies builds trust with customers and partners
  • Demonstrate responsibility: positioning attempto as a responsible company in the AI space

Looking Ahead: Sustainably Expanding AI Competence

With our AI training program, we are building a solid knowledge base that enables our team to use AI technologies competently, safely, and with foresight. This not only increases the efficiency and quality of our work but also positions us as a pioneer for innovation, compliance, and ethical responsibility. In the future, we will examine the individual modules of our AI training in greater detail - from practical case studies to specific application examples. Interested parties are welcome to contact us at any time to learn more about the attempto Academy and our AI training offerings.
