A system and method are disclosed for providing a privacy-preserving training approach for split learning methods, including blind learning. A method includes receiving, at a server device, encrypted smashed data from a client device, using a secure enclave on the server device, moving, on the server device, a server model, the encrypted smashed data and computer code for a blind learning operation into the secure enclave, performing, in the secure enclave, forward propagation using the decrypted smashed data to generate predicted values, comparing the predicted values to true labels using a loss function to yield a loss value, repeating the comparing step for all smashed data received at the server device from a plurality of clients to yield a plurality of loss values, averaging the plurality of loss values to yield an average loss value, updating model weights of the server model using the average loss value to yield gradients of the smashed data and transmitting the gradients of the smashed data to the client device.
