Our Oversight Model
At AIECI, integrity is enforced, not assumed. Our multi-layered oversight framework ensures that certified organizations and individuals continuously meet the ethical and legal standards set by our certification system. Independent certification bodies conduct audits and assessments, while AIECI monitors their consistency, impartiality, and transparency.
Compliance Mechanisms
Certification bodies are required to apply our frameworks with precision and independence.
Certified organizations must maintain compliance over time — not only with EU AI Act and GDPR, but also with ethical principles such as fairness, transparency, and accountability.
Failure to meet these obligations can trigger sanctions, including re-evaluation, suspension, or withdrawal of certification.
Sanctions for Non-Compliance
Compliance is not optional. If standards are violated:
In serious cases, certifications can be suspended or revoked, and public notice may be given.
This protects the trust in our certification system — and ensures ethical breaches are taken seriously.
AIECI may require corrective actions and conduct a re-audit.
Transparency & Reporting
To build public trust, we promote transparent oversight:
Sanctions and corrective actions are communicated clearly, reinforcing our commitment to accountability.
Audit outcomes and inspection reports are shared with AIECI and — when appropriate — made public.
The Role of Certification Bodies
Accredited certification bodies are carefully selected and regularly reviewed by AIECI.
They must demonstrate legal, ethical, and technical competence, and remain fully independent from those they assess.
In the event of suspension, affected organizations receive full support to transfer certification without reputational or legal harm.
Recognized Training Partners
Training partners play a vital role in compliance by preparing individuals for certification. AIECI ensures that their curricula and assessments remain up to date, aligned with legal developments and ethical standards. We monitor their quality continuously to maintain the credibility of every certified professional.
