Terms
The short version of what you are getting and what we both agree to. Last updated 11 October 2026.
The programme
- What it is. A free, self-paced, 15-session leadership programme on AI and Petroleum Industry Act execution for leaders in Nigeria’s petroleum industry, written and taught by Ritchie Wingo, who reviews every assignment marked below the pass, built on his book The Intelligent PIA — An Operating Doctrine for AI Leadership and Petroleum Industry Act Execution in Nigeria. It is offered at no charge, with no paid tier and nothing conditional on a purchase. The book is sold separately; buying it is never required.
- The credential. Passing every assignment, the Session 15 capstone and the Final Exam (pass mark 70) earns an ERW CommandPIA certificate of completion. No reference letter is issued for this programme. The certificate is not a legal qualification, a regulator’s licence, a university award or a vendor certification, and the game plan you produce is the evidence that matters most.
- Your place is personal to you and tied to the account you sign in with. Please do not share your sign-in or redistribute the programme materials.
- Your work must be your own. Submitting another person’s game plan, or work you cannot stand behind, can end your enrolment and forfeit the certificate.
- No advice. The programme teaches a doctrine and a method. It is training, not legal, regulatory, tax, financial or engineering advice about your company. Statutory points are taught as the book states them on its review date; the law changes, and decisions for a real entity need the current instrument, its licence conditions and your own professional advisers. Decisions you take in your business remain yours.
Your material and your company
- Everything you write on the programme is yours, including your game plan. We use it only to mark it and return it to you.
- Write about your own company at the level of obligation, process and figures. Do not submit material you are not free to share.
- The programme materials, the doctrine card and the assessment papers remain the property of Ritchie Wingo and are licensed to you for your own use.
Availability
Because the programme is free, it is offered as it is, and sessions may be improved or corrected while you are part-way through. There are no cohort dates and no deadlines, and your progress waits for you. If something about the programme is not what this site described, contact us first — we would rather fix it.
