What this is
MCP is the protocol a model uses to reach external tools and data. The course splits into two levels, Fundamentals and Completion, and includes building a server of your own.
One detail is worth noting: Hugging Face's popular LLM and NLP courses issue no certificate, while this one does. If a document is what you need, this is the right track.
Who it is for
