Subject: Training request: AI Evals course — {{cohort}}

Hi {{manager_name}},

I would like approval to join SmartAItomation’s four-week AI Evals course for {{cohort}}. The enrollment fee is €{{price_eur}} per participant; I will confirm the final invoice and any applicable tax before payment.

Our team is working on {{product_or_workflow}}. We currently need a more reliable way to identify failures, check whether changes help and catch regressions before release.

During the course I plan to build:
- A reviewable dataset and a clear taxonomy of the failures that matter to us.
- Focused code checks and LLM judges, validated against domain-expert decisions.
- A repeatable comparison of quality, cost and latency for one improvement.

I will share the resulting method and reusable materials with the team, using only data we are authorized to process. The core commitment is around 3–5 hours a week, plus optional office hours. Lectures are on Saturdays, 10:00–12:00 Europe/Chișinău (UTC+2); office-hour times will be arranged separately.

Can you approve the training budget and agree on one use case for me to bring back to the team?

Thanks,
{{your_name}}
