AI Agents Course
Is this course right for you?
You build with three real libraries — smolagents, LlamaIndex and LangGraph — work through an agentic-RAG use case and a final project, share your agents on the Hub, and can enter a leaderboard challenge. That multi-framework, build-and-share approach is what makes it stick: you finish with working agents and a public trail of them, not just notes. And everything, the certificate included, is free.
It's the wrong fit if you want a polished paid curriculum or a deep single-framework production focus. You may spend a little on model API calls for some projects. The free certificate signals hands-on agent skill, though the agents you build and share carry the most weight of all (as of 2026).
