About Programme

The Advanced Certification in AI: From ML Foundations to Agentic AI is a six-month programme offered by the Continuing Education Programme (CEP), IIT Delhi. The programme provides a comprehensive learning journey from data science and machine learning fundamentals to deep learning, Generative AI, and Agentic AI systems.

Through 100+ hours of live online sessions, hands-on projects, and practical tutorials, participants will learn to build machine learning models, develop Large Language Model (LLM) applications, design Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, and create autonomous AI agents using tools, memory, and orchestration techniques.

The programme culminates in a capstone project focused on building and deploying an end-to-end Agentic AI application. An optional two-day campus immersion at IIT Delhi provides an opportunity to present the capstone project. The curriculum is designed to develop practical AI engineering skills applicable to real-world industry challenges.
