How do we give each role its own AI literacy training under Article 4?

In Complipath (complipath.io), each person on your AI literacy list gets one of five paths: all employees, developers, HR, sales and support, or management. A path is what that person should read: the law, a short lesson for their role with a three-question check, a briefing for each AI system they work with, and your AI policy. Each reading is recorded when the person confirms it.

What it does today, and its limits

Each person on the AI literacy list can be given one of five paths: all employees, developers, HR, sales and support, or management. A path is what that person should read: the law, a short lesson for the role that ends in a three-question check, a briefing for each AI system they work with, and the company's AI policy once one is saved. A reading is recorded when the person confirms it, and the record is kept per person.

Beside the literacy record

Who was briefed on the law and on each AI system, the links, the record and its downloads are described on the AI literacy tracker page.
This page covers what the paths add: a lesson for each role, a check, your AI policy and the yearly round.

The five paths

Each path has one lesson of its own
Path	The lesson	What it covers
All employees	Using AI at work	The approved tools, what never goes into an AI tool, checking what it gives you, and telling the team when it goes wrong
Developers	Building with AI	Registering a feature before it ships, what never goes in, keeping a person in control, and telling the team when it goes wrong
HR	AI in hiring and people decisions	Why hiring is named among the high-risk uses, that a person decides, what never goes in and what to do when it goes wrong
Sales and support	Talking with customers about AI	Saying when it is AI, checking AI-written answers, what never goes in and where to point a customer who asks
Management	Leading the use of AI	What Article 4 asks of the company, knowing the register, deciding who decides and what to do when it goes wrong

What it does

You choose a path for each person on your list. A person with no path gets no role lesson, and a new person can be sent every briefing that is theirs when you add them.
Each lesson ends in a check of three questions. A reading is recorded only when every answer is right; a wrong answer records nothing, and the person can read again and try once more.
Your AI policy is a step on the path: everyone on the list reads it and accepts it with one click, and their name and the date are kept. You write it on the page, or use a version you approved among your drafted policies.
Lessons come in English and Swedish, set for each person. The briefing carries a version made from its words, so a person who read an earlier one shows as having read an earlier version.
A reading counts for a year. When you start the yearly round, everyone whose reading is a year old gets the briefing again, and the round can be put among your tasks so that it comes back every year.

What it does not do

It certifies no one. A recorded reading says what was read and when, never that the person is literate, and the check is three questions on the lesson, not a test of competence.
The passed check is written to the activity log. The record and its downloads list the reading and who confirmed it, not the check.
A reading you record yourself, or training done elsewhere, is marked Recorded by admin, and no check is asked for it.
The five lessons are Complipath's own short texts. Your company's own words go in the AI policy.
Briefings go out when you send them, or when you add a person with the box to send their path ticked, and the yearly round starts when you start it.

Which plan

Starter and up, and the trial. On Free it is locked, with a link to the plans, and nothing can be recorded.

Where it sits in the law

Article 4 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 was replaced by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 (the Digital Omnibus on AI), Article 1, point (5). It had asked providers and deployers to take measures “to ensure, to their best extent, a sufficient level of AI literacy”.
Article 4(1) now reads: “Providers and deployers of AI systems shall take measures to support the development of AI literacy of their staff and other persons dealing with the operation and use of AI systems on their behalf, taking into account their technical knowledge, experience, education and training and the context the AI systems are to be used in, and considering the persons or groups of persons on whom the AI systems are to be used. This obligation does not require providers or deployers to guarantee any specific level of AI literacy of any individual.”
Article 4(2) and (3) are addressed to others: the Commission and the Member States are to support providers and deployers, in particular SMEs; the Board is to adopt recommendations. The Commission is to publish practical examples of how to comply; this page does not rely on them.
Article 4 has applied since 2 February 2025 (Article 113, third paragraph, point (a)); the replacement changed the wording and not the date. The text of Article 4(1) names no risk level.
Article 4 asks for measures, not a record, a briefing or a test. These paths are one way to take and show measures; whether they are enough for your company is your judgement.

Questions

Does Article 4 require each employee to reach a set level of AI literacy?

No. Article 4(1), as replaced by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, asks providers and deployers to take measures to support the development of AI literacy, and adds that the obligation does not require them to guarantee any specific level of AI literacy of any individual. A recorded reading is a measure, not a level.

What does the check at the end of a lesson do?

Each role lesson ends with three questions about the lesson. When the person presses the button the answers are marked: if every answer is right the reading is recorded; if not, nothing is recorded and the person can read the lesson again and retry. It is not a score.

What happens when a lesson or the policy changes?

Each lesson and your AI policy carries a version made from its words. When the text changes, the people who read the earlier one show as having read an earlier version, so you can send the new one. Their earlier reading stays on the record with its date.

Which plan includes it?

Starter, at €499 a month for up to 20 AI systems, and the trial. Prices exclude VAT. On Free it is locked. Your first system is free, with no end date. Growth and Scale are not available yet, and nothing on this page waits for either of them.
