AI Evaluation Starter Program
Learn the skills behind AI training and evaluation jobs. AI assistants are checked by people before and after they reach users. These evaluators read a question and the AI’s answers, then judge them against a project’s guideline. This course teaches that work step by step: how human judgment shapes AI systems, the main types of AI-data work, how to apply guidelines and rubrics, how to check answers for accuracy, relevance and instruction following, and how to write clear, evidence-based justifications.

How learning works
Lessons with visuals
Each lesson has a short overview, worked examples, diagrams and concept cards, common mistakes to avoid and key takeaways.
Practice with feedback
Knowledge checks and realistic evaluation exercises are marked straight away, with an explanation of the right answer.
Instructor feedback
Written justifications in exercises and the final assessment are reviewed by an instructor.
Progress you can see
Your dashboard shows completed lessons, practice results and the next step. Lessons work on a phone as well as a computer.
Try a free 5-minute preview
The free preview needs no account and no payment. In five short stages you learn what AI evaluation work is, compare two AI answers, take on a realistic challenge where the confident-sounding answer is wrong, and get feedback on every choice.
Enrolment
Students create an account and request a place on the course. We confirm the place once the course fee has been received, and the full course then opens in the student’s account. For current fees and start dates, please contact us.
Certificates: completion and job readiness are different
We keep a clear line between finishing the course and being assessed as ready for entry-level evaluation work.
Certificate of Completion
Awarded when you complete the course requirements: the lessons, knowledge checks and exercises. It shows that you have studied the material.
Certificate of Job Readiness
Awarded only after you pass the practical final assessment. It is marked against a published standard (80% overall and at least 60% in each skill area), and your written justification is reviewed by an instructor. You have up to three attempts.
Every certificate has a unique number and a QR code. Anyone, such as an employer, can confirm it on the Academy’s public verification page.
Please note: our courses build skills and evidence of those skills. We do not promise employment, income, or acceptance onto any AI platform or project. Those decisions are made by the companies that run them.
Coming next: AI Made Simple: Start With Your Smartphone
Planned: not yet open for enrolment
A beginner course for anyone who wants to start using AI with the phone they already have. It is taught in simple English mixed with Nigerian Pidgin, using everyday examples: writing a message, planning a budget, understanding a letter or learning something new.
If you would like to hear when it opens, send us a short message.
Training for teams and organisations
We also run AI training for staff groups, schools and community organisations, in person or online, using the same practical approach. Group enrolment on Academy courses can be arranged.
