Tokyo, Japan
GRC Academy has announced its expansion into Japan with the launch of English-language, five-day executive training courses, beginning in February 2026. The initiative marks a strategic step in the Academy’s global growth and responds to increasing demand for internationally aligned professional education within Japan.
The first course to be delivered will be Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Leaders and Managers, an intensive five-day programme designed to help senior professionals understand, govern, and lead AI adoption responsibly within complex organisational environments.
All courses will be delivered in Tokyo, positioning the city as GRC Academy’s initial hub for executive education in Japan. The Academy will focus on delivering premium, instructor-led learning experiences that combine strategic insight, governance frameworks, and practical application.

Japan represents a critical market for organisations navigating advanced digital transformation, heightened regulatory expectations, and growing scrutiny around accountability, data, and emerging technologies. GRC Academy’s expansion enables leaders based in Japan to access world-class executive education locally, without compromising on international standards, faculty quality, or applied relevance.
“The introduction of our five-day English-language courses in Tokyo reflects both the maturity of the Japanese market and the global nature of today’s governance and leadership challenges,” said a spokesperson for GRC Academy. “Our AI course is designed for leaders who are not technologists, but who carry responsibility for strategic decisions, risk ownership, and organisational outcomes. This is where the real governance challenge now sits.”
The Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Leaders and Managers course will focus on executive-level understanding of AI capabilities and limitations, governance and accountability models, risk and control considerations, regulatory and ethical expectations, and the leadership decisions required to deploy AI safely and effectively at scale.
The Japan launch strengthens GRC Academy’s international footprint and reinforces its position as a trusted partner for organisations seeking practical, governance-led professional education.
