A leadership-focused course on the category of government and intergovernmental bodies that evaluate frontier artificial intelligence systems for safety and dangerous capability before wide release. Covers why pre-deployment evaluation exists as a concept, the general categories such an evaluation typically addresses, the pattern and genuine limits of voluntary pre-release commitments some developers have made, the unresolved state of international coordination, and the practical relationship between an institute's evaluation and an organisation's own risk assessment when adopting a frontier model. Closes with an explicit instruction to verify current institute names, mandates, and frameworks directly rather than assume anything taught here remains static.
Nothing. Every course, exam, and certificate on the catalog is free — including retakes. All you need is a free Safeguard account.
None. The flagship course, Safeguard Certified Practitioner, is a beginner-level course — basic familiarity with how software is built helps, but every exam question is answerable from the lessons themselves.
You can retake it after a 24-hour cooldown, as many times as you need. Retakes are free, and each attempt draws a fresh random set of questions.
The Safeguard Certified Practitioner credential is valid for 24 months from issue. The expiry date is printed on the certificate and shown live on its public verification page. Renewing means passing the current exam again.
