- **Learner workbook.** Exercises, checklists, and the templates each module's activity produces.
- **Hands-on lab environment.** A sandboxed ibl.ai deployment so exercises run against real agents, not screenshots.
- **Assessment bank.** Scenario questions and rubric criteria mapped to each stated learning outcome.
- **Source bibliography.** Every primary regulation and standard cited on this page, linked and dated.

## Why run AI training on a platform you own?

- **You own the course, not a licence to it.** Course content, learner data, and the platform run inside your perimeter — you own all the code and the data.
- **Model-agnostic delivery.** Run the course's AI components on any LLM — Claude, GPT, Llama, Gemini, Command — and switch anytime.
- **No per-seat training licences.** Usage-based or self-hosted, so cost tracks actual use rather than headcount.
- **Deploy anywhere.** Cloud, private VPC, on-premise, or fully air-gapped — including for cohorts that cannot use public AI tools.

### How do we get access to these courses?

Request access and we will set it up for your cohort — hosted by ibl.ai, or running against your own deployment. Tell us which courses, the group size, and whether it needs to run inside your own perimeter.

### Can we run financial services AI training on our own infrastructure?

Yes. ibl.ai is model-agnostic and deploy-anywhere — cloud, private VPC, on-premise, or fully air-gapped — and you own all the code and the data. Cohort data and anything learners upload stay inside your perimeter, which matters for financial services teams that cannot send work to a public AI tool.

### How much does AI training for financial services cost?

There is no per-seat pricing — you pay for usage, or self-host and pay only for the infrastructure, so a large rollout does not cost one licence per person. 1.6M+ users across 400+ organizations run the platform this way, including NVIDIA, MIT, and Syracuse University.

### Who are these financial services courses written for?

Practitioners rather than general audiences — each course names its audience and prerequisites explicitly, and levels range across advanced, intermediate, foundational.
