Introduction to Azure AI, AI Studio and LLMOps

Microsoft Instructor-led Training

Course Description

In this two-day course, participants will start the morning with an introduction to the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning available in Azure. The focus of this course will be about enabling citizen developers to use readily available, easily accessible tools, to improve quality, accuracy, and speed. Students will learn how to use AI Builder to process various types of documents in a workflow.

In the afternoon, the focus will switch to an introduction into one of the newest features available Copilot Studio and from there will go into the more advanced Azure AI Studio. It offers more enterprise features that allow you to collaborate on AI projects as a team and build out more complex bots and easily create a bot that searches your own data.

On day two the focus will switch to an overview of providing a structured approach to developing LLM-infused applications, guiding users through building, testing, optimizing, and deploying flows. This streamlined process results in the creation of fully functional LLM-infused solutions.

Throughout the course students will complete challenge-based tasks in Azure to understand the concepts in a hands-on manner.
