The Association Societies Alliance (ASA) and Skills4Good AI are launching a nationwide partnership to deliver the first Responsible AI Audit™ CPD Series for Association Executives across the United States. 

As AI becomes more integrated into everyday association work, using it without safeguards risks exposing organizations to reputational damage, loss of member trust, and compliance problems.

The ASA represents State Society of Association Executives across 40 U.S. states, Australia, New Zealand, and over 4,000 professional and trade associations worldwide.

As an American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) Registered Provider, Skills4Good AI offers CAE-accredited courses through its trademarked framework: Responsible AI Literacy = AI Skills + Human Skills™.

Skills4Good AI is also a Government of Canada training provider and a global learning platform serving professionals in over 15 countries.  

Partnership Launch: The partnership will be formally launched at the ASA Winter Conference in Greenville, South Carolina. Skills4Good AI CEO and C-Founder Josephine Yam will lead an interactive Responsible AI Audit™ workshop to identify privacy breaches when using GenAI tools.

Leading Through Responsible AI Audit™

Grant Carpenter, CAE, Executive Director, Association Societies Alliance:

"AI literacy is an essential skill for association professionals. Generative AI tools are revolutionizing the way we work but must be used responsibly and ethically. 

By partnering with Skills4Good AI, ASA is able to provide association professionals with the resources necessary to best serve their organizations in 2026 and beyond."

Josephine Yam, JD, LLM, MA (AI Ethics), CEO & Co-Founder, Skills4Good AI:

“Skills4Good AI is proud to partner with the ASA to support their members in enhancing responsible AI practices for Association Executives across the U.S., including Australia and New Zealand. 

Through our 4-course Responsible AI Audit™ CPD Series for Association Executives, we provide a repeatable Responsible AI Audit™ method to help professionals confidently manage AI risk as adoption expands across more than 4,000 associations in 40 states and around the world.”
