Course Overview

The Agentic AI & Automation with Python course is designed to help learners build intelligent AI systems that go beyond generating responses to actively performing tasks and automating workflows. This hands-on course focuses on creating AI agents that can interact with tools, use APIs, process information, and make decisions to complete real-world tasks.

You will learn how to design, build, and deploy AI agents using modern LLM techniques, including prompt engineering, function calling, memory, and multi-step reasoning. By the end of the course, you will be able to develop automation solutions such as AI assistants, workflow automation systems, and intelligent business tools that can significantly improve productivity and efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Python skills do I need before attending this course?

Participants should have basic to intermediate Python skills, including working with functions, libraries, APIs, and data structures.

We highly recommend completing a course in Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) with Python or having equivalent knowledge before attending this course.

What is Agentic AI?

Agentic AI refers to AI systems that can perform tasks autonomously, make decisions, use tools, and interact with external systems with minimal human intervention. These systems are often designed to automate workflows and solve complex tasks using AI models and reasoning capabilities.

What will I learn in this course?

You will learn how to build AI-powered automation workflows using Python and modern AI technologies. The course covers AI agents, automation concepts, integrations, API usage, prompt engineering, and practical applications of intelligent systems.

Do I need experience working with APIs?

Yes, basic experience using APIs in Python is recommended, as the course includes working with AI and LLM APIs to build intelligent automation workflows.

What tools or software will I use?

You can use tools such as Jupyter Notebook (via Anaconda), Visual Studio Code, or Google Colab during the course.

You will need Python installed along with required libraries, which will be provided during the training.

Access to LLM APIs such as OpenAI may also be required for certain exercises and demonstrations.

Do I need experience with AI or machine learning?
