Agentic AI fundamentals

Learn the language. Then build the system.

You learn what makes an agent different from a chatbot, how the parts work together, and where human judgment belongs. Then you make each part useful.

Explore the build

Eight ideas.
One working system.

The nine sessions move from the language engine to a personal assistant you can direct, check, and control. No coding knowledge is assumed.

Large language model (LLM)Sessions 1–3
The language engine. You compare leading proprietary and open models instead of learning one brand's interface.

Route work by evidence, privacy, speed, cost, and fit—not by whichever logo is loudest.
AgentSession 4
An LLM working toward a goal in a loop: plan, act, check, and adjust.
Agentic systemSessions 4–5
The full setup around an agent: boundaries, tools, memory, evidence, and approval.
ToolsSessions 5 & 8
Approved ways for an agent to search, read files, use software, or create an output.
MemorySessions 6–7
Context you choose to keep so the system can recall preferences and prior work.
EvidenceSessions 4 & 9
Sources and checks that help you verify a claim before relying on it.

AI beyond ChatGPT

Learn the landscape.
Not a logo.

Models will change. Your method should survive the next update. AgentX teaches you how to compare, route, verify, and carry a working agent from one model to another.

Approval gates

No purchase, contact, form, or financial decision. You review every recommendation.

No paid AI subscription required. Core exercises use included or free access. ChatGPT and Claude remain optional, not prerequisites.

Four weeks · Nine sessions

Learn it on Monday. Use it by Tuesday.

Every evening has a visible finish line. The course compounds from a first safe experiment to a personal assistant with approved memory and a reachable interface.

Make AI useful

Oct 5–6
Session 1One question, five minds

Compare leading and open models on one real task. Learn what changes, what holds, and how to choose.

Week 02

Prompt, check, activate

Oct 12–14
Session 3Useful prompting and multimodal work

Use goal, context, constraints, and desired output; then turn visual inputs into checked action.

Session 4Find it, check it, fix it

Session 5Build your first portable assistant

Turn your Agent Card into a working assistant that can move between approved models and tools.

Session 6Build your source-grounded second-brain

Week 04

Reach and extend

Oct 26–27
Session 8Connect a tool and move work

FormatLive online · Zoom

Live online. Built for connection.

A virtual classroom that knows your name.

This is a high-touch working cohort—not a webinar or video library. Capped at 20, it gives every learner room to ask, build, share, and get unstuck.

Stay connected

Use a private cohort channel between sessions for questions, resources, progress, and recovery help.

Share what you built, learn from other approaches, and revisit class recordings and transcripts when you need them.

Online removes the commute. It does not remove the room.

Leave with something real

The work does not disappear when class ends.

01

A working personal assistant

Configured around memory and context you approve, with a clear path for extending it.

Your Personal Agent Map

A one-page model of the goal, inputs, tools, evidence, outputs, memory, and permission boundaries.

A verification method

A repeatable way to separate recommendations from claims, check sources, and fix weak work.

05

Safety and recovery paths

A permissions checklist and clear way to correct memory, tools, or connections when something misses.

Review and join the cohort

Built for ambitious beginners

You are ready if you can join a video call and use the laptop you own.

No prior AI, programming, or command-line experience is required. Core exercises require no paid AI subscription.

Bring

  • A current Mac or Windows laptop with a modern browser
  • Reliable internet and audio for live Zoom sessions
  • A free Google account and permission to install course apps
  • Comfort with browser tabs and basic files
  • One real goal you want AI to help move

Camera use is encouraged, not required. A live online preflight clinic checks Zoom, course access, and the core tools before Session 1.

The practical questions

Before you join.

Is this for complete beginners?

Yes. The course begins with an ordinary AI task and builds one capability at a time. You need everyday laptop comfort, not coding experience.

What exactly will I build?

You will build one working personal assistant, one source-grounded second-brain, a portable Agent Card, a Personal Agent Map, and verification and permission methods.

Can it help with financial or medical choices?

It can help organize research, compare scenarios, surface sources, and prepare better questions. It does not replace a qualified financial, legal, or medical professional, diagnose conditions, or execute portfolio decisions.

How personal can a virtual course be?

The cohort is capped at 20. Each session combines live demonstration, four breakout studios of five, screen-sharing help, and time for direct questions. It is interactive by design.

Where is the course held?

Live online via Zoom from 6:30–9:00 PM ET. Enrolled learners receive private recurring access and preflight instructions by email.

Do I need a paid AI subscription?

No. Core exercises use included or free access. A free Google account is required. ChatGPT, Claude, and other paid plans are optional.

Which AI models will we use?

You will compare GPT, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, and open models such as Llama, Gemma, Qwen, and DeepSeek. You will not need eight accounts: some comparisons use a private multi-model lab or instructor demo.

What software do I need?

Bring a current Mac or Windows laptop with a modern browser, reliable internet, working audio, and permission to install course apps. Zoom and the core tools are checked during preflight.

Are sessions recorded?

Yes. Instructor-led sessions are recorded for enrolled learners, with notice at the start of each session. Breakout rooms are not recorded by default. You control your camera and what you share on screen.

Will I receive a certificate?

Yes. Learners who complete the course receive a named Certificate of Completion issued by AgentX AI Course with the program dates, completed work, and a unique credential ID. It does not confer academic credit and is not a professional certification.

How does enrollment work?

Review the cohort details, complete secure payment through Stripe, and receive the onboarding and preflight steps by email.
