What this course is about

Overview

Design AI agents: tool schemas, function calling, loops, memory, stops, human-in-the-loop, and safety. The playground checks text; real agents run in a sandbox runtime.

Across 5 weeks (20 hours of live + project work) you’ll move from fundamentals to shipping a real, production-grade project — guided by Tigran Hakobyan and the beeon.academy mentor team.
