  1. Step 1 · Lesson

    AI Application Architecture

    Learn how to design robust AI application architectures that connect models, data, tools, users and governance controls. You will be able to choose an appropriate architectural pattern, define component responsibilities, and plan for reliability, security, evaluation and maintainability from the start.

  2. Step 2 · Lesson

    Model and Provider Selection

    Learn how to choose the right AI model and provider for a production application using practical criteria such as capability, latency, cost, data governance and integration fit. You will be able to design a model selection scorecard, run meaningful evaluations and decide when to use one model, multiple models or a provider abstraction layer.

  3. Step 3 · Lesson

    Embeddings and Semantic Search

    Learn how embeddings turn text and other content into searchable numerical representations, and how semantic search differs from traditional keyword search. You will be able to design an embedding pipeline, choose chunking and indexing strategies, and evaluate search quality for business applications.

  4. Step 4 · Lesson

    Deployment, Monitoring and Evaluation

    Learn how to take an AI application from prototype to production with clear deployment patterns, monitoring, evaluation and rollback plans. You will be able to define practical quality, cost, safety and reliability controls for RAG, agentic and API-based AI systems.
