Agentic AI Engineering

5 Weeks | Hands-on Real-World Agentic AI Projects | Code Templates and Reusable Components

Build AI agents that reason, plan, and act using LLMs with integrated tools and frameworks.

 

AI engineering isn’t just about using APIs or building chatbots – it’s about creating agentic systems that can reason, act, and learn. Most courses focus on theory or narrow tool usage. This 5-week program equips engineers and technical founders with hands-on skills to design, deploy, and manage LLM-powered AI agents, safely and effectively.

 
What You’ll Walk Away With:

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Understand LLM Foundations: Master the core concepts of Large Language Models and the Transformer architecture that powers modern AI systems.

  • Build AI Agents: Develop sophisticated AI agents using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), tool calling, and memory systems. You’ll start with the basic building blocks of AI agents with practical examples of how to build AI agents using CrewAI which is one of the most popular agentic frameworks out there. You will also explore various memory access and collaboration patterns of AI Agents. And, you’ll learn the best practices of evaluating AI agent-based workflows. 

  • Fine-tune LLMs: Learn practical techniques for fine-tuning LLMs using RLHF, DPO, and GRPO.

  • Learn Communication Protocols: MCP (Model Context Protocol) and ACP (Agent Context Protocol) form the foundations for enabling intra-agent and inter-agent communications. You’ll learn different protocols to enable communication between agents and tools, and within different agents themselves.
  • Deploy and Monitor: Implement guardrails to prevent hallucinations, bias, and unsafe outputs. Deploy, monitor, and explain your AI agents in alignment with legal and ethical requirements (i.e. ISO 42001, EU AI Act, US Congress AI Act).

  • Master Prompt Engineering: Create effective prompts for complex, context-aware interactions with LLMs.

Success Stories:

Here’s what participants from Lumen programs have shared:

“One of the few decisions in my 25-year career I am completely certain about.”

Senior Industry Professional - Germany

With over 25 years of experience in a senior industry role, this participant joined Lumen at a stage where most professionals are selective about where they invest time and trust. The goal wasn’t exploration, but making a decisive, future-proof move in AI — with clarity, rigor, and practical depth.

Career Advancer
“This isn’t a typical course - it’s more like a transformation.”


Senior Database Professional - Pakistan

With years of experience as a database administrator, this participant joined the program to move beyond system maintenance into analysis, interpretation, and applied workflows. What stood out wasn’t just new tools, but a shift in how problems are framed and solved.

Your Turn Now – See if You’re Eligible:

The Lumen Accelerator is a selective, application-only program with limited seats. We review every application carefully to make sure it’s the right fit — for you, and for the cohort.

If you’re accepted, it means we believe you’re ready to make real progress — fast, and for real.

 
✅ You’re Likely a Good Fit If:
  • You’re a software developer, data scientist, or tech savvy with basic Python knowledge.

  • You want hands-on experience building and deploying real AI-powered applications with LLM agents and RAG.

  • You’re committed to deploying AI systems that are safe, interpretable, and compliant with regulations.

  • You’re a tech founder with an idea and you want to develop a quick and dirty solution, guided by AI Engineering experts.
 
❌ This Program May Not Be Right If:
  • You’re looking for an introductory course in general AI or machine learning concepts.

  • You prefer theoretical lectures over hands-on, applied learning with real coding tasks.

  • You lack the programming experience or technical background needed for agent development. Start here instead: Data Science or AI / ML Engineering Programs.

  • You’re only interested in simple chatbot building rather than comprehensive AI agent systems.

  • You are looking for a broad AI Engineering course covering all AI domains.

Not Sure If You’re Ready?

This accelerator is application-only. It’s not for everyone.

We only take those who are ready to take action — not just watch videos.

If you’re not sure, ask yourself:
“Do I have something to build on? Am I ready to show up, learn fast, and execute?”

If the answer is yes — even with some uncertainty — this is likely for you.
