Offered by Indian Institute of Technology Delhi
A six‑month, live online executive certificate from CEP, IIT Delhi that equips engineers, AI/data professionals and technology leaders to design, orchestrate and deploy enterprise-grade autonomous AI (agentic AI) systems with responsible-AI (AI TRiSM) practices.
Indian Institute of Technology Delhi
Designed for professionals who want to move beyond conventional Generative AI, this six‑month programme from CEP, IIT Delhi combines faculty‑led live sessions, hands‑on demos and an end‑to‑end capstone to teach LLM foundations, autonomous agents, multi‑agent orchestration, RAG, AI TRiSM and LLMOps. Participants gain practical experience building agent APIs, retrieval‑augmented knowledge systems and production‑ready agentic applications.
The curriculum balances conceptual depth and applied engineering with demonstrations (e.g., LangChain, LangGraph, FastAPI, LangSmith) and project work. Optional one‑day campus immersion at IIT Delhi is available to enrich peer interaction (travel and accommodation borne by participants).
