Your path to production-ready agents

  • Build agentic systems that work together: Create multi-agent workflows where agents plan, reason, and collaborate to complete complex tasks reliably, including with tool use and MCP servers

  • Control and improve your agents: Use memory, guardrails, execution hooks, traces, and low-level control layers to ensure reliable, repeatable outcomes.

  • Deploy with confidence: Orchestrate agents with two common paradigms – Crews and Flows – that allow you to scale systems from prototype to production.

Why Enroll

AI agents leverage the power of Large Language Models (LLMs), but, as with all LLM-based tools, they struggle with reliability, coordination, and repeatability when deployed on complex workflows. AI agents build on these models to move from responding to prompts to acting autonomously, reasoning through tasks, and adapting to changing goals. Multi-agent systems extend this capability even further by distributing reasoning and responsibilities across specialized agents that can plan, collaborate, and improve together.

While it’s never been faster to prototype a concept, many teams are still stuck at this prototype stage, where agents might run well at a small scale but fail under real-world conditions. In this course, you’ll bridge that gap by turning prototypes like an automated code reviewer, a meeting co-pilot, and a deep researcher into production-ready systems. You’ll use the CrewAI framework to apply methods that improve control, reliability, and scalability.

Across four modules, you’ll:

  • Build AI agents using core the building blocks of memory, tools (including MCP servers), guardrails, and execution hooks.
  • Design and orchestrate multi-agent workflows using Flows and complex coordination strategies. In hands-on labs, create and refine crews for projects such as a deep researcher and a meeting co-pilot.
  • Add observability and evaluation through traces, testing with LLM-as-a-Judge techniques, and training with human feedback to monitor agent decisions, debug issues, and continuously improve performance.
  • Deploy and monitor agents safely in production, integrating zoom-in and zoom-out observability metrics, versioning your configurations, and scaling reliably with production-grade practices.

By the end, you’ll know how to turn your agent ideas into scalable systems that are robust, observable, and ready for real-world use.

In partnership with

null We built this course with the CrewAI team to share the framework and techniques powering many of today’s most advanced agentic systems. You’ll learn directly from João Moura, Co-founder and CEO of CrewAI, through hands-on labs that guide you from building single agents to deploying multi-agent systems ready for production.

Who should join?

This course is designed for AI builders and technical professionals who want to understand, build, and scale AI agent systems, from engineers and developers to students and technical leaders guiding AI adoption. Whether you’re hands-on with code or leading development teams, you’ll gain the knowledge to design multi-agent workflows, integrate them into real applications, and make informed decisions about deploying them safely and reliably.
