About the Course
Organizations now want measurable results from retrieval-augmented generation for enterprise knowledge management, not vague demonstrations that only work on a small sample of documents. To prove value in this field, you need to show content source governance, chunking strategy, metadata design, retriever selection, response grounding, and evaluation discipline, with enough structure to support audits and changing knowledge bases. That is why practitioners increasingly anchor their work in patterns informed by frameworks such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, and information retrieval methods that support relevance testing and knowledge governance.
This course turns scattered knowledge about embeddings, vector search, and prompt assembly into a structured delivery system for retrieval-augmented generation for enterprise knowledge management. You will practice content inventory mapping, metadata enrichment planning, hybrid retrieval design, and evaluation using precision-at-k, recall, and answer grounding checks, while being introduced to production topics such as reranking, observability, and access-control-aware retrieval at an overview level. This course teaches you how to design a retrieval pipeline, assess retrieval quality, and prepare reporting for business owners so you can deploy grounded knowledge workflows with confidence. In practical terms, you will learn how to map content sources, define chunking and metadata rules, build a retrieval design brief, and create an evaluation scorecard that your team can use for pilot testing.
The course is built for the realities of enterprise environments where content lives across SharePoint, document management systems, wikis, and policy libraries, and where budget, governance, and adoption constraints shape every AI decision. It is suitable for teams that must deliver under data quality gaps, access restrictions, and competing priorities while still producing a usable knowledge retrieval workflow that can be explained to leadership and maintained by operations teams.

- Knowledge Base Administrator maintaining policy, procedure, and FAQ libraries
- Customer Support Operations Lead reducing answer drift in service knowledge
Course Objectives
This course equips you to plan, execute, and measure retrieval-augmented generation for enterprise knowledge management initiatives that improve answer grounding, strengthen content governance, and support scalable knowledge access.
- Assess current knowledge source readiness using a content inventory and retrieval risk checklist.
- Apply chunking, embedding, and hybrid retrieval methods to enterprise knowledge search problems.
- Design a metadata enrichment scheme aligned with vector search and document governance rules.
- Build a retrieval design brief covering source selection, ranking logic, and access boundaries.
- Evaluate retrieval quality using precision@k, recall, and grounding checks on test queries.
- Navigate governance and access-control requirements using ISO/IEC 27001:2022-aware content handling.
- Implement pilot KPIs for answer accuracy, deflection quality, and retrieval latency.
- Synthesize findings into an executive evaluation scorecard and rollout recommendation deck.
Requirements & Prerequisites
Prerequisites: Working knowledge of enterprise content management, search or knowledge base operations, and basic AI concepts. You should be comfortable reading structured documentation and discussing retrieval quality, metadata, and user-facing knowledge workflows. Technical readiness: No coding is required for course completion, but familiarity with spreadsheet-based analysis or analytics dashboards will help. Participants may benefit from prior exposure to vector search, document governance, or prompt design, but these are introduced in a practical and operational way.
