Overview

In this course, the learner is guided through a realistic scenario of governing the predictive models of a data science project during their lifecycle. The project focuses on creating machine learning models that can be used for mortgage loan approvals, where decisions highly influence both individuals and organizations. The narrative is driven by Anna Parker Sr. Product manager of a financial institution in charge of mortgage approval and Sr Data Scientist, Sara Man that guides the learner who assumes the persona of a Jr. Data Scientist, Leo Meep through the usage of IBM watsonx.governance to detect bias and monitor their deployed machine learning models for drift in their selected metrics.

The course educates the learner in IBM’s fundamental pillars of trustworthy AI such as explainability, fairness, and transparency and guides the learner through hands-on exercises using the graphical user interface, in creating machine learning models, tracking the model lineage, enriching the model with metadata previously known as AI Factsheets, and exploring the fundamental pillars of trustworthy AI using watsonx.governance. The learner deploys and monitors the model for drift using the graphical user interface of Watson OpenScale.

Thinking about Onsite?

If you need training for 3 or more people, you should ask us about onsite training. Putting aside the obvious location benefit, content can be customised to better meet your business objectives and more can be covered than in a public classroom. Its a cost effective option. One on one training can be delivered too, at reasonable rates.

Submit an enquiry from any page on this site and let us know you are interested in the requirements box, or simply mention it when we contact you.
