About this course
This course develops practical capability in Model Fine-Tuning. Its course-specific content covers Adaptation planning, Training preparation, Training control, Post-training assessment, followed by an applied project focused on run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation. The lessons include concrete configuration, design, testing or operational decisions appropriate to the subject.
Who this is for
Administrators, developers and practitioners who work with Model Fine-Tuning or plan to take on responsibilities in this area.
Before you start
Working knowledge of artificial intelligence & generative ai and practical familiarity with the named platform or subject. Review the course topics before enrolment to confirm the lab starting point.
Run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation
Deliver run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation. Use the module outcomes to state requirements, demonstrate a working result, test an expected failure or boundary case, and document assumptions and follow-up work.
Course content
Course-specific syllabus and practical exercises. Lab release, access arrangements and final delivery scope are confirmed before enrolment.
01Adaptation planning
+
- Task fit and baseline selection
- Data consent, quality and train-validation splits
Practical exerciseApply adaptation planning to the run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation and capture the validation evidence.
02Training preparation
+
- Tokenisation and supervised examples
- LoRA-style adapters and memory budgeting
Practical exerciseApply training preparation to the run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation and capture the validation evidence.
03Training control
+
- Learning rates, checkpoints and overfitting
- Experiment tracking and reproducibility
Practical exerciseApply training control to the run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation and capture the validation evidence.
04Post-training assessment
+
- Compare against untuned and retrieval baselines
- Safety checks, deployment and rollback
Practical exerciseApply post-training assessment to the run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation and capture the validation evidence.
05Applied project: Run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation
+
- Define inputs, assumptions and acceptance criteria for: Run and evaluate a small parameter-efficient adaptation.
