Course Description

As AI agents transition from experimental tools to production-ready business solutions, organizations need professionals who can design, build and deploy these systems effectively.

This hands-on course teaches software developers and technical professionals how to create AI agents that integrate seamlessly with existing business workflows, from sales and customer support to market research and workflow automation.

This course will cover the core components of agent systems including planning, memory, tool use, evaluation methods, as well as patterns and best practices. Through hands-on exploration of AI agent frameworks and projects, learners will build AI agents for real-world scenarios such as sales qualification, business automation, competitive analysis, and research assistance. By the end of the course, students will have both the technical skills and applied understanding to create agent-based solutions that deliver measurable impact to organizations.
