Learn to align LLMs through post-training in this new course with AMD!

Deeplearning.ai • October 28, 2025

Sharon Joe, Corporate VP of AI at AMD, and Deeplearning.ai launch “Fine-tuning and Reinforcement Learning for LLMs: Intro to Post-Training,” a practical course teaching developers to align and optimize LLMs through post-training methods like fine-tuning and reinforcement learning. The curriculum covers evaluation strategies, data management, production monitoring, and hardware-agnostic labs powered by AMD GPUs.

Key Takeaways:

  • Fine-tuning trains LLMs to pattern-match desired behaviors, while reinforcement learning shapes model incentives to achieve superhuman performance as critical post-training steps.
  • The course details how post-training has been used to teach reasoning, tool use like web search to reduce hallucinations, and safe behaviors such as refusing malicious requests.
  • Hardware-agnostic labs powered by AMD GPUs guide users through building fine-tuning pipelines, crafting effective RL reward functions, and mining production logs for a feedback data flywheel.
