What this is
The course covers the agent loop: tool calling, planning, memory, multi-agent systems and evaluation. The work is done on real libraries, smolagents and LangGraph included.
The old 2025 deadline is gone and the course is open. This is the subject where job descriptions are changing fastest right now, so the recency of the certificate is itself part of its value.
Who it is for
Developers who want to build a product on top of LLMs rather than just prompt one.
