A six-week live cohort — weekly working sessions plus office hours — for cross-functional teams designing, building and deploying agentic AI in the enterprise. Covers the design patterns, MCP-based tool integration, guardrails, human-in-the-loop workflows and operating model that separate agent demos from agent production.
Audience
Who it's for
1
Enterprise architects and platform leads designing agent-enabled systems
2
Product managers and process owners identifying agent use cases
3
Delivery teams standing up their first two or three production agents
Outcomes
What you'll walk away with
Distinguish agent-worthy use cases from workflows that should stay deterministic
Design agents with clear tool boundaries, memory and evaluation loops
Integrate enterprise systems with agents via MCP and equivalent patterns
Build human-in-the-loop and guardrail patterns that pass risk review
Deploy an operating model for running agents in production — SLOs, observability, cost
Modules
Agenda
01
Week 1 — Agent fundamentals
What is (and is not) an agent. Autonomy levels, patterns, common failure modes.
02
Week 2 — Tool use, MCP and integration
How agents call enterprise systems — MCP, function calling, connectors and the security model.
03
Week 3 — Memory, planning, reasoning
Long-context vs. retrieval, planning loops, multi-step reasoning, when to break tasks apart.
04
Week 4 — Guardrails and human-in-the-loop
Approval gates, escalations, refusal patterns, cost caps and abuse resistance.
05
Week 5 — Evaluation and observability
How to test an agent, monitor it in production, and know when it drifts.
06
Week 6 — Operating model & scaling
From one agent to a portfolio. Governance, ownership, cost, and the change work required.
