Practical Generative AI
From Theory to Real-World Applications. Transform your career with cutting-edge AI skills in our comprehensive 6-week intensive, instructor led course.
Fast-track to Generative AI Mastery
Why this course?
In six simple, focused weeks, you’ll go from curiosity to confidence. Live 4h sessions show you exactly how to prompt, call an API, answer from your own files, and try simple tool‑calling and light agents. Between classes, guided notebooks help you turn ideas into working mini‑tools—with community forum and Q&A support from industry experts. By the end, you’ll ship a small capstone you can share with your team or portfolio.
Learn from industry experts from companies like AWS and Meta. Every session focuses on what actually works in practice—clear mental models, copy‑pasteable templates, and patterns you can reuse at work the next day.
Why this format? Because the fastest way to learn GenAI is to build small, useful things. Short, focused live classes keep concepts clear and practical; guided notebooks help you practice; and a final capstone ties everything together. You’ll learn from industry experts, get support in a friendly forum with Q&A, and leave with real skills—and something you’re proud to show.
