Purdy House Publishing & Consulting
Nobody is coming to save you. Not this month. Probably not this year. But the danger and liability is already in building.
That is the premise behind every book Purdy House publishes. Governments are slow. Standards bodies are slower. Regulatory guidance arrives after the technology is already in the building, the vendor contract is already signed, and the questions from parents and staff are already piling up. Organizations that wait for perfect policy from above will wait a long time.
Purdy House books exist because institutions have to bootstrap themselves into responsible AI governance with the staff, the budget, and the time they already have. Every guide is built to be used, not studied. Working policies, not white papers. Outputs in weeks, not months.
The Stop-Gap AI Policy Guide for Primary Education (K-8)
A six-meeting process that takes a school from zero AI policy to a working, defensible framework. Each meeting is focused, time-bound, and produces a specific output.

Built for the principal or curriculum lead who got handed the job and needs something usable now.
The Stop-Gap AI Policy Guide for Secondary and Post-Secondary Education

Aligned to GDPR, FERPA, COPPA, and EU AI Act requirements across multiple jurisdictions. For institutions that need governance infrastructure immediately, not just the policy. This book works for whatever you need from how to configure your cloud services for compliance to a complete and fully operational governance system. This has it all.
