Build a register of the risks attaching to machine learning lifecycle operations and keep it current.
Operating and Managing the Machine Learning Model Lifecycle
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run machine learning lifecycle operations properly.
Course Overview
Boards are asking for measurable returns from machine learning lifecycle operations, not demonstrations. The constraint on lifecycle operations is rarely the model or the platform — it is the data and the operating discipline behind it. The programme suits teams tackling this strand of digital and data-driven work together as readily as individuals attending alone. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make machine learning lifecycle operations hard in practice. Comparative studies of the digital and data-driven work capability across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. A common pattern is strong design of lifecycle operations paired with weak follow-through. Participants leave with a method for machine learning lifecycle operations, not a set of opinions about it. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on lifecycle operations and revise it on evidence. The final module sets out how progress on this aspect of digital and data-driven work will be evidenced six months later.
Expected Learning Outcomes
Specify the data lifecycle operations depends on, where it originates and who is accountable for its quality.
Design the integration points between machine learning lifecycle operations and the systems already in production.
Identify the failure points in lifecycle operations most likely to cause loss, and control them first.
Assess whether machine learning lifecycle operations should be built in-house, bought, or delivered through a partner.
Build the internal capability for lifecycle operations rather than depending on external support indefinitely.
Establish version control and rollback for every component of machine learning lifecycle operations that reaches production.
Who Should Attend
Product owners prioritising the roadmap for machine learning lifecycle operations.
Managers of multi-site operations seeking consistency in lifecycle operations.
Risk managers assessing the exposure created by machine learning lifecycle operations.
Operations managers whose processes are changed by lifecycle operations.
Information security officers reviewing the exposure created by machine learning lifecycle operations.
Risk and compliance staff assessing the controls around lifecycle operations.
Course Modules
Machine learning lifecycle operations: cost, licensing and total running expense
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Who owns machine learning lifecycle operations once the project team disbands
- Identify the data already collected that bears on machine learning lifecycle operations.
- Verify that lifecycle operations still performs when input volume doubles unexpectedly.
- Specify the fallback path when machine learning lifecycle operations is unavailable.
- Identify where judgement in lifecycle operations is legitimate and where it is not.
Session 2The decisions in lifecycle operations that cannot be delegated
- Test the procedure for machine learning lifecycle operations against a realistic scenario.
- Agree who is on call for lifecycle operations outside working hours.
- Prepare the response for the most likely failure in machine learning lifecycle operations.
- Design the pilot for lifecycle operations so that a negative result is still useful.
Lifecycle operations: people, skills and the change that follows
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Comparing lifecycle operations with recognised practice
- Set out the decisions in machine learning lifecycle operations that require sign-off and by whom.
- Agree what will be standardised in lifecycle operations and what will not.
- Define the trigger that would require machine learning lifecycle operations to be redesigned.
- Draft the minimum viable delivery roadmap for lifecycle operations.
Session 2What breaks first when lifecycle operations meets real volume
- Write down the assumptions underpinning the approach to machine learning lifecycle operations.
- Estimate compute and licensing cost for lifecycle operations at expected and at peak load.
- Measure the current quality of the data feeding machine learning lifecycle operations before assuming it is usable.
- Reduce the variation in how lifecycle operations is carried out between teams.
Lifecycle operations: monitoring, drift and operational ownership
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Reviewing lifecycle operations when nothing has gone wrong
- Confirm that those complying with machine learning lifecycle operations understand why it exists.
- Record the rationale for each significant choice made about lifecycle operations.
- Confirm the retention and deletion rules applied to data inside machine learning lifecycle operations.
- Record the reasoning behind each architectural choice in lifecycle operations.
Session 2The governance machine learning lifecycle operations needs and the governance it does not
- List the data sources machine learning lifecycle operations consumes and confirm each has a named owner.
- Set the metrics that will show whether lifecycle operations is drifting from its intended behaviour.
- Define the service level machine learning lifecycle operations must meet and what happens when it is missed.
- Collect evidence on the present handling of lifecycle operations before proposing changes.
Lifecycle operations: governance, ethics and explainability
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1The pilot that actually settles the argument about lifecycle operations
- Assess the regulatory obligations machine learning lifecycle operations triggers in each jurisdiction.
- Classify the data in lifecycle operations and apply access controls that match the classification.
- Build the user briefing that explains what machine learning lifecycle operations does and does not decide.
- Define the exit route from the supplier supporting lifecycle operations.
Session 2Explaining lifecycle operations to people whose jobs it changes
- Establish what evidence demonstrates machine learning lifecycle operations is under control.
- Map the handovers in lifecycle operations between functions and secure them.
- Build the internal briefing that explains machine learning lifecycle operations to those affected.
- Decide which legacy process lifecycle operations retires, and set the date.
