Presentation
Generative artificial intelligence is profoundly transforming business practices. AWS offers a complete ecosystem of AI services to design, deploy and govern innovative solutions:
Amazon Bedrock for access to foundation models, Amazon Q Developer for development assistance, and Amazon SageMaker AI for machine learning. These tools enable organisations to accelerate AI projects while managing risk and compliance.
This one-day course provides practical skills to understand and apply generative AI on AWS. It covers the 5 official AIF-C01 exam domains: AI and machine learning fundamentals, generative AI principles, foundation model applications, guidelines for responsible AI, and AI solution security, compliance and governance. Through practical Amazon Bedrock workshops, you will learn to design effective prompts, evaluate results and plan AI projects.
By the end of the day, you will have the knowledge to identify appropriate business use cases for generative AI and be ready to take the official AIF-C01 exam, included in our offer, to obtain AWS Certified AI Practitioner - Foundational certification (see the certification tab for more information).

As a premium training partner (ATP) accredited by Amazon Web Services, Oo2 offers skills development and certification courses that meet the organisation's rigorous quality standards.
