Designing and Building AI Agents: Course Info

Content

The focus of this hands-on workshop is designing and building an AI agent to complete a task from your daily workflow . You will document your current process and measure the actual time, steps, or error rate for that task. From there, you'll design your agent in portable, tool-agnostic formats. This design-first approach makes you the architect of the solution rather than the operator of one vendor's interface: your work carries over to whatever platform your organization adopts.

In this practical workshop, you'll transcribe your design into a working agent, run it live, and test it to surface weaknesses before deployment . At the end of the session, you will re-measure the same task to quantify impact and document what stays human: the judgment, accountability, and edge cases you continue to own as the orchestrator of the workflow.

You’ll leave with a working, secure agent, clear before-and-after results, and a reusable 5-Step Blueprint for building future agents that are accurate, scalable, and IT-ready.
