Developing AI Agents on Azure: From Prompt to Context Engineering to Production
This One-Day intermediate-level custom training equips AI Engineers and technical professionals with the skills to design, build, and orchestrate intelligent AI agents using Azure AI Foundry and Microsoft Agent Framework. By the end, participants will understand agent architecture, tool integration, multi-agent collaboration, and remote agent communication protocols.
Before enrolling in this custom training, participants should ideally be familiar with core AI concepts and Azure AI services. Completing the “Get started with artificial intelligence” learning path beforehand is strongly recommended to ensure a smooth experience and maximize hands-on success throughout the course.
