LLM evaluation and guardrails course

Learn to prove your AI app works, and keep it safe

AI apps fail silently: a prompt change that looks fine can break a hundred answers. Module 9 teaches the evaluation and security engineering that catches this before users do.

What you learn in Module 9 (Evals, Guardrails & AI Security)

  • Why AI apps fail silently, and error analysis on real traces.
  • Golden datasets and synthetic test data.
  • Code-based checks and assertions, then LLM-as-judge calibrated against human labels.
  • Evals in CI: blocking a bad prompt change before it ships (automated evaluation pipelines).
  • Tracing and observability with open-source tools.
  • OWASP Top 10 for LLM apps: prompt injection, data leakage, excessive agency.
  • Guardrails and personal-data redaction (how to write guardrails), and red-teaming your own app.

Module 9 has 11 lessons and about 24 guided hours. It sits between RAG (Module 8) and agents (Module 10), because agents that act need the strongest testing.

Certificate

Each lesson, each module and the full program earn a certificate of completion with a public verification ID. It is a certificate of completion, not a degree.

Questions people ask

Still curious? Talk to us.

What are LLM evals?

Automated tests for AI features: a fixed set of inputs run on every change, scored by code checks and calibrated LLM judges, so regressions are caught before release.

What are LLM guardrails?

Checks around a model that screen inputs, limit what tools can do, require human approval for risky actions and validate or redact outputs.

Does it cover prompt injection?

Yes. Module 9 covers the OWASP Top 10 for LLM apps, including prompt injection, data leakage and excessive agency, and you red-team your own app.

What do I build?

An evaluation suite and red-team report for the Module 8 RAG assistant, wired into CI so a regression fails the build.
