With its AI Officer courses, the eco Association reached an important milestone in 2025 in expanding its practice-oriented continuing education programme relating to Artificial Intelligence (AI). Together with its partners neuland.ai and Dr Jens Eckhardt (PICT Legal), eco succeeded in establishing high-quality qualification formats that provide companies with sound guidance in a dynamic and strategically highly relevant field.

Whether through two-day in-person courses in Cologne, tailored in-house training sessions or online formats on the AI Act, the strong interest and positive feedback clearly demonstrated the high demand for application-oriented expertise, legal classification and strategic guidance in the use of AI.

For eco, this represents a particular success, as the courses not only strengthen expertise within companies but also underline the eco Association’s commitment to playing an active role in shaping the digital transformation through practical expertise and a strong network of partners.
