Compliance calendar
The Section 3H concept that China's AI-specific regulatory reach has widened repeatedly since 2023 (training data duties, mandatory labeling, foundational-law recognition, humanlike-interaction rules), meaning exposure must be re-checked periodically rather than assessed once and treated as permanently settled.
Defined in 2 GAGE programs, which carry 6 distinct definitions of it. The wording above is taught in Certified China AI Regulatory Professional (CCARP).
How each discipline defines it
The same term does different work depending on who is using it. These are the definitions as each program teaches them, unedited.
The Section 3H concept that China's AI-specific regulatory reach has widened repeatedly since 2023 (training data duties, mandatory labeling, foundational-law recognition, humanlike-interaction rules), meaning exposure must be re-checked periodically rather than assessed once and treated as permanently settled.
A maintained tracking document listing every relevant deadline (effective dates, grace period expirations, enforcement start dates, comment period closes) across every jurisdiction a client operates in; the practical artifact that supports time-bound currency arguments on short notice.
A monitoring system's most concrete output: a list of verified effective dates, filing deadlines, and enforcement milestones, each entry citing its Layer 1 source, per Section 3M.
A running record, integrated into the campaign timeline, of which disclosure requirement applies to each channel today, when that requirement is scheduled to change, and who is responsible for re-checking it.
An organizational tool, proportional in sophistication to the organization's size, that tracks trigger dates, calculated deadlines, and accountable owners for every filed algorithm's ongoing timeline obligations. The Section 7 Filing Timeline Tracker is a working example built to this specification.

Where it shows up at work
A definition is where Compliance calendar starts. The lessons above teach it inside the competencies below, which are what job descriptions ask for and what the GAGE credential records. Every link here is drawn from the same careers map that builds a role's readiness check.

How job descriptions say it
Postings rarely use the textbook word. These are the phrases the careers map reads as asking for the competencies above.
Where the frameworks place it: EU AI Act Article 50; C2PA Content Credentials; California SB 942; EU AI Act Articles 11 and 12.
One interview question about it
Your company publishes AI generated images at scale. What must be machine readable, what must be visible, and which law says so?
Asked of candidates for content provenance and authenticity. Answering it in your own words is exactly how a GAGE topic is passed, and the credential records the pass where an employer can check it.
If you come from another field
Some backgrounds already carry this competency, and the readiness check gives credit for it.
- A business, MBA or technology management degree carries it as a claim to back up: Value and return measurement are a course you passed.
- Compliance and regulatory affairs carries it as work you can show: Audit-ready documentation is what you produce.
- Internal audit and IT audit carries it as work you can show: Evidence evaluation is the profession.
