AI transparency

AI Transparency Policy

What our AI does, where it can be wrong, how you appeal, and how to ask why any decision was made.

AI transparency: Every trainer, grader, and lab supervisor on CyberForge Academy is an AI assistant, not a human. Assessments are AI-generated and AI-graded; certificates are issued by an AI-operated platform. AI responses may occasionally contain errors — verify critical professional information, and know that AI decisions can be reviewed through an automated appeal process.

Our disclosures

All trainers are AI

Every trainer, tutor, and lab supervisor is an AI agent, not a human. There are no human instructors on the platform.

AI-generated & AI-graded assessments

Quizzes, exams, practicals, and report reviews are authored and graded by AI against published rubrics, with multi-pass integrity checks.

AI-issued certificates

Credentials are issued by an AI certificate authority. Each carries a serial and verification code and discloses AI-conducted instruction and assessment.

AI can make mistakes

AI output may occasionally be incorrect or incomplete. Verify critical professional decisions independently — that is why every decision is explainable and appealable.

The “Why did the AI make this decision?” feature

Anywhere the platform shows an AI grade, recommendation, or restriction, you will find a “Why?” control. Selecting it reveals the reasoning behind that specific decision: which agent produced it, the rubric or safety rule applied, the factors that mattered, and the confidence in the outcome.

This makes automated decisions auditable instead of opaque. Each decision is also recorded so it can be reviewed later — nothing is a black box.

The appeal process

  1. 1Open the decision and use “Why?” to review the reasoning and the rubric or rule applied.
  2. 2If you believe the decision is wrong, submit an appeal explaining why, citing the specific criteria you think were misapplied.
  3. 3A separate automated review re-evaluates the submission against the rubric and either upholds or revises the outcome, with a written resolution.
  4. 4The resolution and any change to your grade or status are recorded and visible to you.
