Tools and Technologies
This module introduces learners to the AI landscape by exploring key concepts, technologies, and business applications of AI, Generative AI, and Agentic AI. It also provides foundational knowledge of the tools and environments used throughout the program, enabling learners to begin building AI-powered solutions using both code- and no-code approaches.
This module provides an overview of the Generative AI and Agentic AI landscape, exploring the critical distinctions between generative and discriminative AI, their applications, and bias and hallucination associated with modern AI systems.
This module builds on a fundamental understanding of LLMs by tackling the challenge of prompt stability, optimizing prompts for consistent performance, introducing a rigorous framework for LLM evaluation via LLM-as-a-Judge, and curating gold-standard datasets for human evaluation. The module also covers Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), exploring data chunking, embeddings, and vector databases to ground models in external knowledge and build and evaluate context-aware, reliable Generative AI solutions.
This module focuses on designing and implementing Agentic AI systems for complex business applications. Learners begin by examining responsible AI practices and security considerations for deploying LLM-based solutions. The module then explores the architecture of AI agents, including how tools, memory, and reasoning strategies enable autonomous task execution. Building on this foundation, learners design both single-agent and multi-agent systems capable of collaboration and distributed problem-solving. The module concludes with evaluation techniques and human-in-the-loop approaches to ensure reliability, performance, and governance in Agentic AI solutions.
This module is designed to build practical capability in applying Generative AI and Agentic AI using the Claude ecosystem in real-world contexts. Participants build the ability to design, execute, and evaluate AI-driven workflows for real-world applications, supported by structured learning. *Disclaimer: Access to tools within the Claude ecosystem is not included as part of the program. Participants may choose to explore advanced capabilities independently.
This module will help you explore how to solve business problems by examining the capabilities of text-to-image and image-to-text Generative AI tools like DALL·E through business use cases and by exploring the speech recognition capabilities of audio-to-text Generative AI tools like Whisper through business use cases.

I'm proud to share that I've completed a Post Graduate Diploma in AI: Agentic Business Applications. What stood out most wasn't only the technology. It was how much AI changes the questions leaders need to ask. Agentic AI isn't just a tool that answers prompts; it can plan, act, and work alongside people. That shifts leadership from automating a task to designing work where people and intelligent systems each do what they do best. A few things I'm taking forward: curiosity beats certainty, good AI starts with good judgment, and the real value comes when technology frees people to focus on creativity, relationships, and decisions that matter. I'm genuinely optimistic about what's ahead and excited to apply these ideas to help teams work smarter and lead with confidence in an AI-enabled world. A special thank you to Akshit Sharma and Great Learning for the conversations along the way.

I’m proud to share my experience with Great Learning, which has been an important step in my journey toward building a career in Artificial Intelligence and Generative AI. Through this program, I gained hands-on experience with Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), prompt engineering, AI agents, multi-agent workflows, AI evaluation, and automation. What made the experience especially valuable was the opportunity to apply these concepts through practical, business-focused projects and understand how AI solutions can address real-world challenges. Coming from a professional background outside traditional software development, this journey has been both challenging and rewarding. It has strengthened my ability to combine business understanding, problem-solving, and emerging AI technologies, skills I’m excited to bring into my next professional opportunity. I’m now looking forward to the next chapter of my career and exploring opportunities in AI Business Analysis, Generative AI, AI Operations, Business Process Automation, and other AI-focused roles where I can continue learning while contributing meaningful value. Thank you to Great Learning for being an important part of this journey, and thanks to coordinator Akshit Sharma.

My experience studying at Great Learning was truly transformative, opening the door to the fascinating world of AI, automation, and workflow development. The program introduced me to an entirely new world of AI and automation, particularly the use of n8n for workflow automation. It expanded my understanding of technologies that were previously unfamiliar to me. The practical approach helped me see how AI can be applied in real-world scenarios and educational settings. Despite not having a technical background, the program made complex concepts accessible and encouraged continuous learning. English is not my native language, so I occasionally had to look up unfamiliar words and expressions. Coming from a non-technical background, I found some technical terminology challenging and often needed additional explanations for concepts such as fetch, parse, and other programming-related terms. The learning curve was sometimes steep, requiring extra time for self-study and research. Overall, I am very satisfied that I joined this program. It challenged me to step outside my comfort zone, broadened my knowledge of AI and automation, and gave me valuable skills that I can apply in higher education and beyond.

I recently completed the Postgraduate Program in AI Agents and Generative AI for Business Applications through Great Learning and the McCombs School of Business at The University of Texas at Austin. I strongly recommend this program to anyone looking to improve their understanding of AI in industry while also having the opportunity to apply the skills gained in realistic applications. As a logistics professional, I found great value in our final project, where we used a multi-agent RAG pipeline to evaluate, respond to, and improve operational responses to last-mile delivery failures. Going into the program, I had only a surface-level understanding of AI and its possibilities beyond being an advanced search engine. By using the low-code approach offered by the program, I was able to gain in-depth knowledge in this rapidly growing area without being distracted by my lack of programming experience. At the same time, I greatly expanded my programming knowledge through the well-structured approach executed by Great Learning. This was a huge positive for me. I am confident that I can take the skills learned and apply them in my professional life.
