Agent Fundamentals
Earned Jan 29, 2026 EST
This course is dedicated to equipping you with the knowledge and tools needed to uncover the unique challenges faced by MLOps teams when deploying and managing Generative AI models, and exploring how Vertex AI empowers AI teams to streamline MLOps processes and achieve success in Generative AI projects.
You’ve built your first agent—now it’s time to take it further. In this course, you’ll advance your skills by learning how to turn a basic AI agent into a sophisticated, precise assistant—applying advanced instructions, model selection, planning capabilities, and structured output patterns.

Turn your understanding of agents into practical reality by building, configuring, and running your first AI agent using Google’s Agent Development Kit (ADK). In this hands-on course, you’ll set up a complete ADK development environment, create agents with both Python code and YAML configuration, and run them through multiple interfaces. You’ll also learn the core parameters that define agent behavior, taking what you learned in course 1 and applying it to working code.
AI Agents represent a major shift beyond traditional large language models (LLMs): instead of simply generating text-based solutions, they can also act autonomously to execute them. This course introduces the fundamentals of AI Agents, how they differ from LLM APIs, and where they add value in the real world. Based on Google’s agents whitepaper, it provides the theoretical foundation needed before writing your first lines of agent code—ideal for developers, architects, and technical decision-makers who want to understand AI systems through the lens of autonomous, goal-directed behavior (and not just text generation).
