Agentic AI Foundations

Transform your AI development skills by learning the essentials of agentic AI systems on AWS. This hands-on course empowers you to create autonomous AI agents that go beyond simple chatbots. Through practical exercises and real-world examples, you'll learn to leverage AWS services to build AI systems that can reason, plan, and act independently. Learn core concepts like agent architecture, decision-making frameworks, and autonomous behavior implementation. By course completion, you'll be able to identify agentic AI solution architectures, explain key differences between traditional conversational AI and agentic systems, and describe implementation patterns for autonomous agents using AWS services. Our expert-led instruction combines theoretical foundations with practical application, ensuring you gain both deep understanding and hands-on experience.
