What is the Audit-Tested MLOps Foundations for Compliance course about?
Compliance teams are being asked to sign off on ML systems they didn’t build and can’t fully trace. Without standardized MLOps, audits become reactive fire drills instead of verification of robust systems. Teams struggle to reconcile engineering velocity with regulatory expectations, leading to delays, rework, and exposure.
