How you are assessed
Assessment checks that you can do the work, not that you can recall slides.
| Component | What it is | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Baseline diagnostic | A short self-assessment at the start. Not graded; it shows your progress. | — |
| Day 1 validated practical | A real task completed with AI, with a log of what you checked against what. | 20% |
| Final knowledge check | 20 multiple-choice questions, several based on workplace scenarios. 15 minutes. | 25% |
| Capstone agent | A working agent, demonstrated live and scored against a published rubric. | 55% |
