Hands-On Labs

Every concept practiced in real environments — not slides.

Jupyter Notebook Lab

Hands-on Python exercises for AI foundations — no local setup required. Pre-configured cloud environment with Ollama and LangChain installed.

Available in Courses 1–4

Private LLM Sandbox

Deploy your own Llama 3 instance in a secure BTG-hosted environment. Configure RAG pipelines against sample enterprise document sets.

Course 3

Agent Builder Workbench

Build a working multi-agent pipeline that reads emails, categorizes issues, searches a knowledge base, and drafts responses — in a real LangChain environment.

Course 4

Governance Simulator

Run a mock AI risk assessment against three simulated AI deployments — score them against the NIST AI RMF and EU AI Act risk tiers, then build a remediation plan.

Course 5

Certification Path

Industry-recognized credentials from a Microsoft partner with 25 years of enterprise experience.
