Recognition of the Top 10 Champions in AI Ethics & Governance Certification

In line with Singapore’s aspiration to become a hub for developing and deploying artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, SCS has rolled out yet another initiative to advance AI Ethics – the recognition of Top 10 Champions in AI Ethics & Governance Certification. This award not only serves as a testament to the awardees’ advocacy in encouraging professional development in AI Ethics & Governance in their workplaces, but also their commitment towards building a competent and trusted AI ecosystem.

This is in addition to the development and launch of the world’s first AI Ethics Body of Knowledge by SCS in October 2020 with the support of Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA), and a new joint AI Ethics & Governance Certification programme by SCS and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) that forms part of the NTU AI Ethics FlexiMasters Programme in April 2021.

Addressing the awardees at the award ceremony, SCS President, Mr Sam Liew said, “With AI development and deployment on the rise, we hope that recognising Top 10 Champions in AI Ethics & Governance Certification will bring about a ripple effect where professionals and organisations become more proactive in adopting the AI Ethics Model Framework in AI development and deployment. Correspondingly, our SCS-NTU joint AI Ethics & Governance programme will train and build a pool of certified professionals who are knowledgeable in AI governance and competent in implementing AI in accordance with the code of ethics.” The Top 10 Champions in AI Ethics & Governance Certification (not in order of ranking) are as follows: 1.
