Yes — at least 1 year of QA experience (manual or automation).

No programming background is needed, though familiarity with testing workflows is helpful.

1. Project-based learning: You test a real U.S. AI startup product

2. 95% hands-on: Minimal theory, maximum practice

3. Mentor-led live sessions (with recordings for 1-year access)

4. Career coaching and interview prep built into the final module.

Week 1: AI fundamentals, environment setup, and AI-assisted testing basics

Week 2: LLM testing, debugging model failures, and assertion strategies

Week 3: Advanced red-teaming, grounding validation, and safety testing

Week 4: Open-source tools, workflow automation, and model evaluation frameworks

Week 5: Resume optimization, job prep, and final capstone showcase

You’ll gain practical skills to:

1. Test and validate AI-powered applications and LLMs

2. Detect hallucinations, bias, and factual drift

3. Evaluate grounding and context reliability

4. Use frameworks like Promptfoo and LLM-graded assertions

5. Build a portfolio-ready capstone project aligned with current job roles

These are addressed through:

- Deterministic & weighted assertions

- LLM-graded accuracy evaluation

- Safety, bias, and hallucination detection patterns

- Multi-model comparison

- Context-based grounding checks

Weeks 2–3 focus on advanced Promptfoo assertions and red-team strategies to identify hallucinations, factual drift, and grounding violations.

You won’t build a RAG pipeline from scratch, but you’ll learn how to evaluate retrieval-augmented systems — a core QA responsibility in AI production environments.

This program is for QA professionals with 1+ year of manual QA experience who want to move into the fast-growing world of AI Quality Assurance.  No coding or AI experience is required — just curiosity, analytical thinking, and a testing mindset.

Yes — these are included through:

1. Drift indicators and re-evaluation cycles

2. Synthetic variation testing

3. Failure pattern analysis

3. Feedback loop triage

You’ll learn to identify regression behaviors and emergent defects as AI systems evolve — essential for real-world QA teams.

Yes, but in this course. "Break Into AI Testing" bootcamp focuses exclusively on text-based LLMs, since the current job market is centered on grounding, factuality, and safety validation for text systems.

To all of the alumni as a part of our AI Career Accelerator path we offer a next Advanced course focused on the more kinds of AI.

AI Career Accelerator is a long term path aimed at full career transformation that offers various courses about AI testing and internship opportunities.

"Break Into AI Testing" - is a first step of AI Career Accelerator path, a 5-week, hands-on training program designed to help QA engineers transition into AI & LLM Testing roles. You’ll work on a real U.S. startup AI project while mastering model evaluation, red-teaming, and test automation with AI tools.
 

You’ll explore multi-agent orchestration concepts by testing a live AI app (WeOptimize).

We emphasize end-to-end testing rather than isolated stages.

You’ll learn to:

✅ Identify failure points in multi-turn interactions

✅ Evaluate guardrail effectiveness and memory behavior

✅ Detect safety leaks and context loss across chained logic

✅ This reflects real QA work in AI product teams — black-box testing of complex reasoning flows.
