LLM Tester: quality assessment of AI systems — new course, first cohort 6 October 2026

We are launching a new course in our catalogue — LLM Tester: quality assessment of AI systems (with Python basics). The first cohort starts on 6 October 2026, with a second group on 27 October 2026.

As LLMs and generative AI systems move into production, checking their quality and safety has become a distinct specialisation with a low entry barrier. The course suits both newcomers to the field and practitioners — testers, analysts, linguists and developers.

What you will learn

  • Python for testing: HTTP requests, working with JSON, calling models via the OpenAI and Anthropic APIs;
  • how LLM systems work: tokens, context, non-determinism, and defect classes (hallucinations, bias, prompt injection);
  • designing evaluation rubrics and prompts, and the LLM-as-judge method;
  • automated eval pipelines: promptfoo, DeepEval, pytest;
  • testing RAG systems and AI agents (tool use, tracing);
  • basic red teaming: prompt injection and jailbreak tests;
  • the regulatory context: EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 25059.

Course highlights

  • 120 academic hours, of which 64 are classroom contact hours, with practical work;
  • in person in the centre of Tallinn (Tartu mnt 18) and/or online; training materials are included in the price;
  • price 1700 € (VAT included);
  • official certificate upon completion — with a “pass” grade on at least 75% of the homework assignments;
  • no prior programming experience required: the course includes a Python foundations block.

Who this course is for

  • current and aspiring testers who want an in-demand specialisation — testing AI systems;
  • professionals from other fields considering a move into the AI industry through model quality assessment;
  • linguists, editors, translators and analysts — working with language and attention to detail (rubrics, labelling, response evaluation);
  • developers and engineers who need to verify the quality and safety of LLM features in their products.

Instructors: Roman Kutselepa and Nikolay Zubrilov.
