🧠 Built for Real-World Machine Learning Practitioners

✅ Struggling to quantify uncertainty in your models with confidence?

✅ Need reliable predictions that stand up in production—not just in notebooks?

✅ Tired of “explainability” that’s vague, unconvincing, or not actionable?


This course isn’t about academic exploration.

It’s about building trustworthy, interpretable, and calibrated AI systems—at scale.


✅ What You’ll Learn to Do

💎 Apply Conformal Prediction to any ML pipeline—classification, regression, time series, Computer Vision and NLP

💎 Quantify uncertainty rigorously, using proven, distribution-free techniques

💎 Deliver reliable prediction intervals with real-world performance guarantees

💎 Communicate risk clearly to non-technical stakeholders

💎 Use Conformal Prediction in production with modern ML and Conformal Prediction tools.


Every module is hands-on, practical, and tested in real industry use cases.


eLarn why Conformal Prediction works, and how to use it to deliver measurable ROI, unlock new ML capabilities, and secure your competitive edge for the future.

What people are saying

        Amazing course! I believe this course is quite unique, and you can't find a similar one anywhere else. Valeriy is one of the few instructors who combine both academic and industry expertise, and the discussions in the course were quite useful. The material is dense for the short course time, so I recommend getting the book beforehand

        I am demanding—both with myself and with the technologies and methods I choose to use. I've completed many specializations in the past, but looking back, I now see most of them as mere introductions, not directly applicable to real-world problems. Last year, I took the 'Conformal Prediction' course and found it to be of exceptional quality.
Stefan Degeye

        For too long, uncertainty in decision sciences was treated as a niche, often overlooked. Point predictions ruled, making trust in models hard—especially in high-stakes settings. The Conformal Prediction course changed that for me, offering a clear, practical path to statistically valid, trustworthy insights.
Chirag Ahuja

        The Conformal Prediction Course deepened my understanding of classification. I learned to use methods like Venn-Abers and saw how conformal prediction tackles imbalanced data. It inspired my Python library, TinyCP, now used in my work. I’ve dropped SMOTE. For regression, guaranteed prediction intervals blew my mind. 10/10—highly recommend!

        Valeriy’s course is a must for data scientists. It blends fundamentals and real-world use of Conformal Prediction to quantify and act on uncertainty. His clear teaching makes complex ideas accessible. At Target, it’s key to designing resilient supply chains—accuracy alone isn’t enough without understanding uncertainty.
