Course overview

A single track that starts with no AI background and ends with a deployed generative AI application. The course explains what generative models are, how transformers produce text, and how the surrounding tools embeddings, vector stores, agents and fine-tuning fit together. Concepts are introduced where they are needed for the build in that module.

Learners work in Python on Google Colab with the OpenAI, Anthropic and Hugging Face APIs, and finish with a working assistant of their own choosing.

Who it is for
  • Beginners with basic computer skills
  • Developers new to AI work
  • Students in engineering, science and MCA streams
  • Professionals evaluating AI for their teams
Prerequisites
No AI background required. Basic Python is helpful and is revised in Module 2.
How it runs
Learn → Practise → Build → Experience → Demonstrate, ending in a capstone. Delivered by practitioners from the engineering bench, in Madurai, Coimbatore and online.
Final project
AI Assistant of the Learner’s Choice, Deployed and Documented
