EU AI Act · Article 4 starts enforcing August 2026
AI is already in your company. Can you prove your people know how to use it?
A checklist for HR, compliance, and security teams. Map where AI is being used, find the gaps an auditor would flag, and build training that matches the policies you actually have.
Proving it is harder than it looks. Here's where most teams get stuck:
01
You can't train for what you can't see
AI shows up in legal, marketing, support and finance with no rollout plan. Step one is finding it.
02
Generic AI courses won't match your policy
An off-the-shelf module teaches what ChatGPT is. Article 4 cares whether your people understand your rules.
03
Sending the policy isn't a completion record
Emailing a document isn't proof people read it. You need records, and you need people to finish.
What's in the checklist
The steps a compliance lead would walk through if they had time to think it through properly.
An AI usage audit you can run this week
Map which teams use which tools, including the ones nobody approved.
A risk-to-role matrix
Decide who needs deep literacy and who needs the basics.
The training Article 4 actually expects
In plain language, not legal text.
A completion and record-keeping template
So you have something to put in front of an auditor.

Built by a team that delivers compliance training to banks, government agencies and retail chains every day.
The checklist tells you what training you need. Getting people to finish it is the next problem.
Most AI literacy training ends up as a 40-minute course in a system nobody logs into. Ervy puts it where people already work: in Microsoft Teams, two to three minutes at a time.
From your policy to a finished course, in Teams
Upload the document you already have.
Ervy turns it into short lessons your people complete without leaving Teams.
01
Upload your policy
Any PDF, policy or handbook you already use.
02
Ervy builds the course
AI writes the lessons, quizzes and explanations.
03
Teams delivers it
Lessons land in employees' Teams chat. No new login.
04
People complete it
Two to three minutes each, with completion tracked.
Regulated bodies already run compliance training this way
Consumer Rights Protection Centre of the Republic of Latvia
Public sector
105 employees
Compliance
Employees actually complete them, because they're short, clear, and don't interrupt work.
