In this course, you learn to evaluate, diagnose, and optimize AI agents on the Gemini platform. You begin where most teams begin: the agent runs, but you have no eval cases, no test data, and no production traffic to grade it with. From there you follow the Quality Flywheel, the evaluate-analyze-optimize loop at the center of Gemini platform. You instrument the agent so it emits the telemetry Gemini platform reads, generate eval cases by simulation, choose the metrics that grade them, run offline evaluations, monitor live traffic and alert on quality drift, then cluster failures and optimize. A final module covers build-time evaluation with the Agent Development Kit (ADK) in Gemini platform, which runs on your machine before you deploy.

Deploying reliable generative and agentic systems requires moving beyond traditional software testing and subjective assessments. Because these probabilistic systems introduce unique failure modes, technical teams need structured frameworks to measure quality, enforce guardrails, and tie model behavior directly to business outcomes. Evaluate Generative and Agentic Systems gives engineers and architects practical tools to design, execute, and scale rigorous evaluation pipelines. You will master the full evaluation hierarchy, from fast deterministic checks to calibrated Large Language Model (LLM) autoraters and human-in-the-loop workflows. Learn how to simulate high-fidelity test datasets, trace multi-turn agent trajectories, and establish reliable consistency metrics across runs. By the end of this course, you will be prepared to translate organizational Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) into actionable technical benchmarks, calibrate objective rubrics, and maintain a continuous quali…

In this course, you'll learn to use the Agent Development Kit (ADK) in Gemini platform to build systems where multiple AI agents collaborate on complex tasks. You'll start with the ADK agent model: how ADK represents agents, tools, and runners, and how a single agent is configured and run. You'll then make tools the model can call, persist session state across agents, and instrument the execution lifecycle with callbacks and plugins. Next, you'll orchestrate multiple agents using ADK's template workflow agents and graph-based workflows, and ground them in enterprise data through multi-source retrieval and MCP integrations. Finally, you'll deploy a multi-agent system to Agent Runtime as a managed service and register and share it through Gemini so users across an organization can reach it.

In this course, you'll learn to build and run enterprise agents on the Managed Agents API, the managed agent runtime on Gemini platform. Three conceptual lessons give you the mental model. You'll learn why a real business task needs an agent rather than a chat model. You'll examine how the platform splits into a control plane that defines agents and a data plane that runs them. You'll learn how to assemble an agent from a definition, a sandboxed environment, mounted data, tools, and skills. Furthermore, you'll learn how to run it with background interactions, a streamed reason-act loop, resilient typed results, and state that persists across turns. You then put that model to work in a hands-on lab, where you build, run, and harden a retail merchandising agent for Cymbal Retail from an empty project to a production-shaped deployment. By the end, you'll be able to design, build, and operate a managed agent of your own.
