AI-Driven Due Diligence and Contract Auditing (AGRC-011) Training Course

Course overview

Why Attend
Artificial Intelligence is transforming how organizations conduct due diligence, assess risks, and manage contract auditing activities. This course provides participants with practical knowledge of AI technologies and their applications in automating contract analysis, improving risk identification, strengthening compliance monitoring, and supporting more accurate and efficient auditing processes.

AI-driven contract auditing uses technologies such as natural language processing and machine learning to read large volumes of contracts, extract key terms, flag unusual clauses and compare what was agreed with what was actually invoiced or delivered. In due diligence, the same tools help teams review a target company's contracts in days rather than weeks.

A typical example is a merger or supplier review where a team must check hundreds of agreements for change-of-control clauses, liability caps, renewal dates and pricing terms. Manual review is slow and inconsistent, while AI tools can classify contracts, extract obligations into a structured register and highlight the documents that need a lawyer's attention. The course explains how these tools work in plain language, where they are reliable and where they are not, and how to validate their output. Participants practise designing extraction checklists, reviewing AI-flagged risks, matching contract terms against payment data to detect overcharging, and documenting their work so that it meets audit evidence standards.

Governance is covered throughout, including data confidentiality, model limitations and the need for human review of high-risk conclusions. Participants leave with a practical framework for introducing AI into their due diligence or contract audit process, with a pilot plan and controls they can propose to their organisation.
