Where every evaluator begins.
Before you score a single AI output, Foundation gives you the shared language and standards the rest of the pathway is built on: what large language models actually do, how RLHF turns expert judgement into safer models, and what separates a high-quality evaluation from a careless one. Finish it and you're ready to calibrate daily.
What you’ll learn.
What large language models are, how they generate text, and why human feedback matters.
Task interfaces, rating mechanics, and what constitutes quality feedback.
Structured rubric evaluation, dimensional scoring, anchoring, consistency and automation bias.
Writing rationales with structured citations, clinical reasoning, and evidence grounding.
Task assignment, turnaround expectations, quality metrics and handling patient identifiers.
Guided exercises across core task types with immediate feedback.
