1 Day Instructor-led 

About this course 

From workflow automation to intelligent digital teammates, AI agents are changing how work gets done. In this course, you’ll break down the key parts of an agent—like memory, planning, and tool use—compare leading no-code tools, and build your first prototype agent live.  Leave with clarity, capability, and a strategic lens on when and how to adopt agentic AI in your role or business. 

What you will learn 

• What AI agents are—and how they go far beyond traditional automation or chatbots. 

• The essential building blocks of agents: memory, planning, tool use, feedback. 

• How to evaluate and choose from frameworks like CrewAI, Relevance AI, and OpenAgents. 

• Where agents are already creating value in business (ops, sales, PM, research). 

• How to prototype an agent with no-code tools and plan for real-world impact. 

• Key considerations for responsible agent adoption: ethics, trust, and governance. 
   

What you will need 

• Basic AI/ML familiarity (no coding needed) 

• Awareness of typical business or development workflows 

• A headset and a stable connection for online sessions (ILO only)
