About the Course

This advanced training course provides participants with a practical understanding of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), model interpretability, and AI transparency. As organizations increasingly rely on machine learning models for decision-making, the ability to understand, explain, validate, and communicate how these models produce their predictions has become essential.

The course explores key concepts and techniques for interpreting both traditional machine learning and complex black-box models. Participants will gain hands-on experience with leading explainability approaches, including SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) and LIME (Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations), while learning how to distinguish between global and local model explanations.Participants will also examine feature importance, partial dependence, individual prediction explanations, model behavior, bias detection, fairness, transparency, and explainability challenges associated with complex AI systems. Practical case studies will demonstrate how XAI can support responsible AI, regulatory compliance, risk management, stakeholder confidence, and better business decision-making.

What happens if I need to cancel or defer my training slot?

If you are unable to attend, you must notify us in writing at least 7 days before the course start date. You may choose to nominate a qualified substitute colleague at no additional cost or defer your enrolment to the next scheduled cohort for that program.

Yes. We specialize in corporate capacity building. Corporate sponsorships and group registrations can be coordinated directly through our admissions team. We also offer customized, in-house versions of our courses if you have a team of five or more participants.

Our primary residential and corporate training programs are hosted in premium, fully equipped conference facilities in Nairobi, Kenya. We also coordinate regional and international training locations depending on the specific cohort and organizational requirements. Exact venue details are communicated in your admission letter.

Payments can be made via bank transfer or bank draft payable to PB Institute of Research and Technology. For corporate-sponsored participants, a formal undertaking/Local Purchase Order (LPO) from the employer is required to secure a slot before the training commencement date.

While the majority of our intensive professional programs are structured for high-engagement, on-site delivery, we offer select courses in a virtual or hybrid format. If your organization requires online delivery for a specific module, please indicate this during your booking inquiry.

Our curriculum is explicitly designed around actionable, real-world case studies and frameworks (such as IPSAS, GFS, and climate-smart agriculture models). Rather than relying purely on academic lectures, our programs utilize quantitative tools, interactive exercises, and strategic analytics to ensure immediate workplace application.
