RAG & LLM Applications · Kaiserslautern

RAG & LLM Applications training in Kaiserslautern

Develop RAG and LLM applications: embeddings, vector databases, chunking, retrieval, evaluation, cost control and data protection.

All 29 RAG & LLM Applications courses are also available in Kaiserslautern – in a centrally located training room or at your premises on request.

Retrieval-augmented generation connects language models to your own knowledge: manuals, contracts, tickets, wikis or product data are made searchable and handed to the model as context at runtime. The result is assistants that give grounded answers with citations instead of hallucinating. In this two-day course you build a complete RAG pipeline, from document preparation through embeddings and a vector database to answer generation, and you learn which levers actually determine quality.

Kaiserslautern is a renowned centre for computer science and AI research with a university and research institutes. Our training room gives teams from the Palatinate, Saarland and the Rhine-Neckar region easy access to hands-on AI training.

Core content of every RAG & LLM Applications course

Module 1 Foundations of RAG and LLM applications
  • Anatomy of a RAG pipeline: ingestion, indexing, retrieval, generation
  • Understanding embeddings: semantic similarity, dimensions, model selection
  • Weighing RAG against fine-tuning and long context windows
  • Structured outputs, citations and dealing with hallucinations
Module 2 Document preparation and chunking
  • Reliably extracting PDFs, Office documents, HTML and tables
  • Chunking strategies: fixed size, structure-aware, semantic, with overlap
  • Enriching metadata and generating contextual summaries per chunk
  • Incremental updates and deletion of documents in the index
Module 3 Vector databases and retrieval strategies
  • Comparing vector databases and extensions such as pgvector, Qdrant, Weaviate or OpenSearch
  • Hybrid search combining vector and full-text search with BM25
  • Reranking, metadata filtering and query rewriting
  • Agentic retrieval: letting the model decide on search steps and tools
Module 4 Evaluation and quality assurance
  • Building and maintaining test sets from real user questions
  • Retrieval metrics such as recall and precision, and answer metrics such as faithfulness
  • Using and calibrating LLM-as-a-judge sensibly
  • Regression testing when chunking, model or prompt changes
Module 5 Operations, cost and data protection
  • Prompt caching, batch processing and model choice to cut costs
  • Optimising latency and streaming responses
  • Document-level permissions, tenant isolation and protection against prompt injection
  • Data protection: data residency, processing agreements, deletion policies, GDPR and the EU AI Act
