Corporate training quote

Organizations have mostly used AI in a question-and-answer style: a person asks, AI answers, and the person then does the follow-up work every time. Today AI has moved beyond an assistant waiting for commands to an AI agent that takes a goal in human language and then plans on its own, chooses its own tools, works through many steps in sequence, checks the results and adjusts until the goal is met. This capability is rapidly changing how organizations work, because tasks that once needed

a person to click through each step can now be handed to an agent from start to finish. This course is designed for professionals and teams who want to understand and actually build AI agents, focusing on business use rather than deep programming. Learners come to understand an agent's anatomy - its brain (LLM), memory, tools and planning - learn key agent patterns such as ReAct, Tool-use, Planning and Reflection, build a first agent that calls real tools and APIs, extend to multi-agent systems that

divide roles and collaborate, connect agents to real systems via MCP and platforms like n8n, and set the reliability, guardrails, human-in-the-loop, security and PDPA practices needed before putting agents into production. All content is taught through workshops on real tasks and finishes with a capstone project where learners build an end-to-end AI agent for their own organization's work. (2 days, 6 hours per day, 12 hours in total, Intermediate to Advanced level, prior generative-AI use recommended, no programming required.)

Objectives

  • Understand what an AI agent is, how it differs from a chatbot, workflow and Custom GPT, and its autonomy levels
  • Understand an AI agent's anatomy: brain (LLM), memory, tools and planning
  • Apply key agent patterns: ReAct, Tool-use, Planning and Reflection to fit the task
  • Build an AI agent that calls real external tools and APIs, no-code / low-code
  • Design memory and knowledge so the agent recalls context and uses real organizational data (RAG for agents)
  • Design a multi-agent system that divides roles and collaborates (supervisor, worker, hand-off)
  • Connect AI agents to real systems via MCP and automation platforms like n8n
  • Set reliability, guardrails and human-in-the-loop practices to control quality and risk
  • Manage security, cost and PDPA, including AI governance for using agents in the organization
  • Assess which tasks suit an AI agent and plan a phased real-world rollout

Who this course is for

  • Those using AI in daily work who want to move from an AI assistant to a system that works on its own
  • IT, operations, digital and innovation teams that want to set up AI agents in the organization
  • Product owners, project managers and team leads who want to delegate multi-step work to AI
  • Customer service, sales, marketing and back-office teams with heavy repetitive processes
  • Business owners and executives who want to understand the potential and risks of AI agents for strategy

Prerequisites

  • Prior basic use of generative AI such as ChatGPT or Claude
  • General computer and internet skills
  • Understanding of your own role's workflow to use as an agent case study during training
  • No programming background required, though reading JSON or having called an API helps you go deeper into tools and MCP

Curriculum

Course Details

A 2-day course, 6 hours per day (12 hours in total), delivered as a hands-on workshop with a capstone project. Intermediate to Advanced level. Learners take home their own AI agent, agent and multi-agent design templates, and a reliability, security and PDPA checklist.

Day 1: Understanding and Building Your First AI Agent

Section 1: Getting to Know AI Agents

  • What an AI agent is and how it differs from a chatbot, workflow and Custom GPT
  • From Q&A to goal delegation: Perceive, Plan, Act and Observe
  • Agent autonomy levels and choosing the level that fits the task's risk
  • AI agent use cases by department and which tasks do and do not suit an agent

Section 2: Anatomy of an AI Agent

  • Core components: brain (LLM), memory, tools and planning
  • The agent loop: perceive, plan, act and check results to adjust
  • The role of the system prompt and goal in shaping agent behavior
  • Agent limits and risks: looping, wrong decisions and runaway cost

Section 3: Key Agent Patterns

  • ReAct (Reason + Act) alternating thinking with doing
  • Tool-use pattern: selecting and calling the right tool for the task
  • Planning pattern: breaking a big goal into sub-tasks and steps
  • Reflection pattern: having the agent review and improve its own work, and choosing the pattern by task and cost

Section 4: Building Your First Agent No-code / Low-code

  • An overview of platforms for building agents without programming, and setting goal, role and scope
  • Setting instructions and a stopping condition so the agent does not exceed its scope
  • Testing and observing the agent's planning and decisions
  • Workshop: build an AI agent that takes one task and plans multiple steps to a result

Section 5: Tools and Function Calling to Make the Agent Act

  • Tools and function calling that let the agent act, not just answer
  • Connecting common tools such as search, API calls, calculation and file read/write
  • Writing tool descriptions so the agent selects them at the right time, and handling wrong tool calls
  • Workshop: connect tools so the agent pulls data from an external service and completes the goal

Day 2: Multi-Agent, Real-system Integration and Governance

Section 6: Memory and Knowledge for Agents

  • Short-term and long-term memory and their effect on agent behavior
  • Having the agent use real organizational data with RAG (retrieval augmented generation)
  • Managing context and selecting relevant data for the agent
  • Reducing hallucination and having the agent cite sources

Section 7: Multi-Agent Systems and Orchestration

  • Why some work needs multiple agents rather than a single one
  • Collaboration patterns: supervisor and worker, role division and hand-off
  • Coordinating agents, aggregating results, and cautions on complexity and cost
  • Workshop: design a team of 2-3 agents that divide roles to run one process together

Section 8: Connecting AI Agents to Real Systems

  • Connecting agents to data and systems via MCP (Model Context Protocol)
  • Placing agents in automated processes with n8n and receiving events via webhook
  • Connecting channels such as Gmail, LINE and Slack so the agent receives tasks and returns results
  • Approaches for securely connecting databases and internal systems (demo)

Section 9: Reliability, Guardrails and Human-in-the-loop

  • Designing guardrails to limit what the agent can do
  • Where human approval is required (human-in-the-loop) for high-risk work
  • Handling errors, loops and capping step count and cost, and testing agent quality before production
  • Workshop: add guardrails and human approval points to the agent from the earlier workshop

Section 10: Security, Cost, PDPA and AI Governance for Agents

  • Agent-specific risks: over-broad tool access and prompt injection via external data
  • Managing permissions and credentials on least privilege
  • Data the agent must not access and protecting personal data under PDPA
  • Controlling usage cost and maintaining an audit trail and AI usage policy for agents

Section 11: Capstone Project and Real-world Adoption

  • Task: build an end-to-end AI agent for one of the learner's real tasks, setting goal, role, tools and memory with guardrails and human approval points
  • Connect the agent to a real system or channel and test end to end
  • Present the work and get feedback, plus a first-30-days adoption plan and extending to an organizational agent system
