What you will learn

  • Build and deploy intelligent autonomous AI agents using cutting-edge frameworks like OpenAI Agents SDK, N8N, AutoGen, CrewAI, LangGraph, & MCP.
  • Build AI agents that remember, reason, and collaborate using memory, tools, guardrails, and handoffs.
  • Learn the foundational components of the OpenAI Agents SDK, including the Agent object and Runner class.
  • Build and run AI agents and monitor their activity using traces on the OpenAI API platform.
  • Build handoff mechanisms that smoothly transfer context and inputs between agents (e.g., Planner → Writer).
  • Implement guardrails to enforce boundaries (e.g., preventing responses on restricted topics like politics).
  • Explore CrewAI for building more advanced agentic workflows and extend agents with custom Python execution tools for analysis and modeling.

Course Description

In this hands-on masterclass, you’ll learn how to design, build, and deploy next-generation AI agents that combine memory, tools, collaboration, and automation to solve real-world problems. Starting with the OpenAI Agents SDK, you’ll explore how to create simple agents and gradually extend them with advanced features such as persistent memory, guardrails, and smooth handoffs between workflows.

You’ll then dive into multi-agent systems, where specialized agents, like researchers, analysts, and writers, work together, passing context and outputs to build complex deliverables. Along the way, you’ll learn how to orchestrate these systems with manager functions, enforce ethical and domain boundaries with guardrails, and design creative pipelines for use cases from market research to advertising campaigns.

The course introduces multiple frameworks for building production-ready agentic workflows. You’ll explore AutoGen for multi-model collaboration, LangGraph for modular pipelines connected to user interfaces, and CrewAI for advanced orchestration. You’ll also learn how to extend agents with custom tools, from Python code execution for data analysis to classical machine learning models like linear regression, random forest, and XGBoost.

You’ll gain practical experience with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling agents to interoperate with standardized external services, and learn how to build and deploy MCP tools using Gradio. Finally, you’ll see how low-code platforms like n8n can bring everything together into seamless automation flows, integrating Gmail, Google Sheets, Google Calendar, and AI models to create complete end-to-end systems.

By the end of the course, you’ll have the skills to:

  • Build AI agents with memory, tools, and reasoning capabilities.

  • Orchestrate multi-agent workflows for research, analysis, and creative tasks.

  • Integrate guardrails, handoffs, and oversight to ensure safe, reliable outputs.

  • Deploy advanced agentic workflows across AutoGen, LangGraph, CrewAI, and MCP.

  • Automate business processes with low-code tools like n8n connected to real-world apps.

Whether you’re a developer, data scientist, or business innovator, this course equips you with the full toolkit to design AI systems that collaborate, automate, and scale in production.

Instructor Details

Prof. Ryan Ahmed, PhD, MBA

I'm Dr. Ryan Ahmed, professor, engineer, and founder of Stemplicity, where we help people get past the hype and actually build things with AI, Agentic AI, Cloud, and Data Science.

Over the past 10 years, I've taught 1 million learners across 160 countries — 700,000+ enrolled in my Udemy courses, 260,000+ subscribers on the "Prof. Ryan Ahmed" YouTube channel, and 120,000+ on Coursera. I also run corporate AI training for teams at HSBC, RBC, Discover, and Barclays across the US, Canada, and the UK. I held leadership roles at GM, Samsung, and Stellantis in Canada and the U.S., working on electric and autonomous vehicle technologies.

I hold a MASc, PhD, and MBA from McMaster University. I’m also a licensed Professional Engineer and a Stanford-certified program manager with over 60+ published research papers in AI and battery systems.

But credentials are the least interesting part. Here's what I actually believe: "AI is the biggest opportunity of our lifetime", and most people are sitting it out because they think they need to code or have a PhD. You don't. If you're willing to show up and try, I'll help you get good at this.

Good for Practical Hands On Introduction to Different Frameworks but still needs some other courses for more depth in each framework.

By Fadi Ayad on 7/6/2026

Prof. Ryan Ahmed is great. I enjoyed this course. I like his way of teaching, and I think he covered a lot of important and useful material.

By Rama Chegondi on 7/3/2026

Able to understand the concepts and good that practice is also going in parallel which helps to gain the learning insights faster. Thanks

By Aydın Kağan Türkoğlu on 5/1/2026

course explain simple stuff extremely detailed but he didnt touch anything even remotely complex, if you are a vibe coder with no tech background its great, if you have a tech background however, its just good for a super quick introduction what tools are available. You probably fast forward a lot. I give it 3 instead of 1 because at least it help me to build my own learning path later.

The Agentic AI Engineering Masterclass -2026 session was very impressive and having informative value of content, Hope this session would be assessing fit in future skill.

By Arkadyuti Banik on 4/3/2026

All Projects during the course are really fantastic to grasp the concepts and relevant practising projects are helpfull. Absolutely Enjoyed the learning experience during the course.

By Christos Gklinavos on 4/2/2026

Excellent course, very knowledgeable instructor with an engaging teaching style. Material up to date, that covers many frameworks and tools like OpenAI, Autogen, Langraph, Crew AI, MCP, and n8n. Many working examples in the form of Jupyter notebooks (code, pdf's, and other course materials are provided for downloading). Recommended!
